Simon Wiesenthal Center and the Museum of Tolerance’s “Anne”
A quote from Anne Frank, along with photographs and information, is printed on the wall as part of a new, permanent exhibition about the life of Anne Frank at the Simon Wiesenthal Center and the Museum of Tolerance. “Anne” opens Monday with multimedia components, interactive displays and short films -- the kind of immersive environment the museum is known for.
