A ceremony commemorating the liquidation of the Bialystok Ghetto in Poland was held in the auditorium of the Bialystoker Center and Home for the Aged on East Broadway in New York City. The Yiddish sign in front of the stage refers to the 10th anniversary of the 60,000 Bialystok ?kidoshim [martyrs],? a reference to the number of Jews from Bialystok who were killed in the Holocaust.

The Bialystoker Home for the Aged was started by the Bialystoker Landsmanshaft (a Jewish mutual-aid society which helped new immigrants from Bialystok adjust to life in the US).
