I have been a close fiend of Craig and Barbara Weiner for over 40 years and assisted them in the preparation of the documents for the Non Profit. What they have accomplished is truly amazing. The Holocaust Museum is an impressive exhibition of the history of that era and a lesson in what we should never allow to be repeated. Equally as impressive is the fact that they have imparted this knowledge to countless students, many of whom did not have any knowledge of what occurred prior to and during World War II. Craig and Barbara have devoted much of their time and resources to this project. Ea ch viit to the museum is a worthwhile learning experience for me.

What a fabulous historical museum. I could not believe the number of original artifacts on display. Far more than I’ve seen at any other Holocaust museum and I’ve been to many including the Washington and New York museums. Such a wonderful museum right here in S. Florida at Nova Southeastern University. A friend told me about it. I’m so glad because I had no idea it was there.

The Craig and Barbara Weiner Holocaust learning center is a hidden gem in the nova southeastern public library in Davie, Florida. If you are visiting or a local It is “free” absolutely no fee to enter the museum . There is so much to see and so much to learn that even though it is small in size it is large in the amount of information and artifacts. This museum is truly a gift for all who venture inside its walls.

The Craig and Barbara Weiner Holocaust Reflection and Resource Center at NSU is like no other place I’ve ever been to. Besides the immense amount of materials to read and films to view, the vast collection of actual artifacts is nothing short of amazing. I believe that EVERYONE, especially school children, should be required to visit it. And one visit is never enough! There is so much to see and the center is constantly acquiring new items and updating their programs. Thank you Craig and Barbara for your commitment in fighting antisemitism and any form of injustice! Your work will prove that our holocaust victims and survivors will always have a voice!
Never Again! Never Forget!

The Craig and Barbara Weiner Holocaust Reflection and Resource Center at Nova Southeastern University's Alvin Sherman Library is something to behold. There are rare and genuine artifacts from the Holocaust, along with testimonials, educational resources, artwork and more. The center transcends time and takes you to a place in which hatred was a part of everyday lives, and makes one realize the current state and the importance of standing up against all forms of hatred and racism.

I have been to the center numerous times, and there is always something new to see and learn. It is a center for the community and reminds us to never forget.

Beautifully built educational center that bears witness to the tragic events of the Holocaust.

I have never seen so many meaningful and emotionally charged artifacts together in one place.

The center is a perfect resource for school projects, research, self-interest, and provides the space needed to reflect on our moral responsibility to each other.

Thank you to the Weiner’s for providing a special gift to the community that will educate forever!

I happen to be in Fort Lauderdale on business and found this museum. We have visited a number of Holocaust Museums in various parts of the world. This one is totally amazing. The displays are explained and they have computers with tons of information. The exhibit of artifacts is one of the best and most comprehensive my wife and I have ever seen at a museum. Extremely well done and quite amazed to find this at a university. Kudos to the university for having such an outstanding and important exhibit on their campus.

I have had the privilege of volunteering at the Holocaust Reflection Center for the past two years. Craig and Barbara have built a very special place to teach both kids and adults not only about the horrific things that happened during the Holocaust but more importantly about being good people and speaking up against discrimination when they see it happening in their lives. The Center has many unique artifacts and exhibits and I highly recommend visiting.

What an amazing piece of history right here in our backyard! I could not believe the multitude of artifacts. I have visited the Holocaust Museum in DC many times, and this is certainly comparable to that. An experience that is both moving and educating. It truly is a treasure that we have in South Florida that every family should visit.

Compelling, poignant, educational, historic come to mind when I think about the Holocaust Center Craig and Barbara Weiner established. Clearly a labor of love, the sheer amount of information assembled and artfully displayed is incredible. Having visited multiple times, I continue to be amazed by the continuing expansion of their collection. It’s always a real treat when the Weiner’s are your tour guide. The place is a real gem!

As a high school teacher knows, the best way to teach is to make the lesson relevant. The Craig and Barbara Weiner Holocaust Reflection Center provides the opportunity for students to actually feel the lessons of the Holocaust, not just read about them. Among many lessons, students will have the opportunity to understand the significance of the upstanders who risked their lives protecting innocent victims and hopefully speak up themselves to stop discrimination when they see it today. This is a special place, and I highly recommend visiting with your class or your own family. Everyone can learn something from the Reflection Center. You may need more than one visit to experience it all.

A moving and highly educational experience here, curated by those who care so deeply about the atrocities of the Holocaust and using that history to promote kindness amongst all of us. You will see artifacts here that you can not find elsewhere. An amazing place.

Several of my friends and I had the privilege and good fortune to have a private tour and lecture guided by Craig Weiner. The knowledge he shared with us was remarkable! The pictures at this center are heart wrenching, unique, and many are one of a kind, never before seen. Craig and Barbara have done an incredible job putting together these pictures and memorabilia and the experience is not to be missed! My hope is that this exhibit and all of the other services The Craig and Barbara Weiner Holocaust Reflection and Resourse Center provide will in some way help stem the tide of rising antisemitism in this country. Please, take this opportunity to view the photographs and look at the victims' faces..... this can never happen again!!!!

This is the best Holocaust Museum and Education Center I have seen in South Florida. They also conduct a statewide Holocaust reflection Contest each year for thousands of schools across the entire state. I will be donating to this center for sure.
