I found that the trip to the Holocaust Centre helped with my research for a Rake's Progress because I was looking into the last painting where Tom is in Bedlam mental hospital and the two higher class women were paying to have a look around, this links to the divide of the classes the way that it did in the Holocaust with seperate races of people, people being divided up into Gettos and such.

About the Holocaust Centre
2012 Opening times
For the 2012 opening times and Survivor speaker list, please click hereThe Holocaust Centre promotes an understanding of the roots of discrimination and prejudice, and the development of ethical values, leading to a greater understanding within society. The Centre uses the history of genocide as a model of how society can break down, and emphasises how current and future generations must carefully examine and learn from these tragedies. The Centre promotes respect for human rights, equal opportunities and good citizenship, which has greater resonance than ever in our culturally diverse society.
The Holocaust Centre provides a range of facilities for people of all backgrounds to explore the history and implications of the Holocaust. These include the Holocaust exhibition, The Journey, memorial gardens, bookshop and coffeeshop. There are also seminar and research facilities for students, teachers, scholars, professionals and many others.
