Holocaust Museum Exhibit on Berlin Olympics Comes to UT Austin

The University of Texas at Austin has partnered with the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum to host the traveling exhibit "The Nazi Olympics: Berlin 1936," July 6, 2015, through Jan. 29, 2016, at the H.J. Lutcher Stark Center for Physical Culture and Sports at Darrell K Royal–Texas Memorial Stadium. It is free and open to the public.

The Stark Center and the Texas Program in Sports and Media have partnered to bring the exhibit to Austin to commemorate the 80th anniversary of the Berlin Olympics.

"As we enter the 2016 Olympic year, we wanted to remind the public of what can happen when sport is subverted for political reasons and why race and religion should never be a reason to exclude someone from sport," said Stark Center Director Jan Todd.
