The Armenian Genocide Martyrs Monument
Community, Memorialization and Commemoration
In February, the Armenian Genocide Martyrs Monument at Bicknell Park in Montebello, California, was officially recognized as a California State Historical landmark. In light of this recognition, join us for an on-site educational experience at the Monument for middle school and high school educators.
This professional development opportunity invites educators to engage with the USC Shoah Foundation’s testimony-based IWalk, “The Armenian Genocide Martyrs Monument: Community, Memorialization and Commemoration”, which contextualizes and humanizes the history of the Armenian Genocide and the establishment of this historic Monument. This IWalk is also meant to be a resource for middle school and high school students as well as the general public.
Educators will:
- Access the USC Shoah Foundation’s IWalk mobile application and download the IWalk for the Armenian Genocide Martyrs Monument of Montebello.
- Engage with the testimony-based IWalk on-site guided by Institute staff.
- Discover how this IWalk contextualizes and humanizes the history of the Armenian Genocide and the establishment of this memorial.
