Survivor-Centred Visual Narratives

Book launch of ‘Two Roses’ at Toronto Holocaust Museum – Mar 25, 2026

We are delighted to announce that the Toronto Holocaust Museum will host the book launch of our graphic novel Two Roses: A Story of Deception and Determination in Nazi Germany on March 25, 2026. Developed by graphic artist Miriam Libicki, Two Roses depicts the story of Holocaust survivor Rose Lipszyc and her aunt Róza Finkielsztaj in Nazi Germany.

The program will include a panel conversation with Rose Lipszyc, Miriam Libicki, and co-editors Mark Celinscak and Charlotte Schallié. The discussion will be moderated by Professor Sara R. Horowitz (York University). Copies of the book will be available for purchase, and be purchased online at the University of Toronto Press.

Registration is free of charge, and guests may explore the galleries and engage with Rose’s testimony as part of the museum experience before the event.

We sincerely thank the dedicated team at the Toronto Holocaust Museum for their coordination of the book launch and making this a special event to honour Rose and her legacy of Holocaust education.

We would also like to acknowledge this event was made possible with additional funding support from the Government of Canada’s Multiculturalism and Anti-Racism Program’s new initiative, the National Holocaust Remembrance Program (NHRP). This program supports initiatives that seek to preserve the memory of the Holocaust and help improve Canadians’ understanding and awareness of the Holocaust and contemporary antisemitism.

Please register in advance, as space is limited, and we look forward to seeing you there!
