AUGUSTA — The Maine Holocaust and Human Rights Center is holding an observance to remember the 6 million Jews who died in the Holocaust.

Sunday’s event features a brief service featuring Cantor Deborah Marlowe of Temple Beth Israel in Waterville, music, refreshments, and the viewing of an award-winning film.

The Day of Remembrance was started in 1953 to honor of the tenth anniversary of the Warsaw ghetto uprising.
