Writing & Art Contest entries currently being judged

This year we received over 750 entries for our Jacob Friedman Holocaust Writing & Art Contest! For each writing and art, there were three age group divisions: 5th & 6th grade, 7th & 8th grade, and high school. The 2010 prompt was:

How would your life be different if people were more respectful and tolerant of each other's differences? How does change begin with you?

It's been a busy week at the Holocaust Center as the art contest judges have been assessing the numerous (and excellent!) entries. Every surface available in the office has been covered with beautiful and enlightening illustrations, collages, and photographs. We look forward to announcing the winners of both the writing and art sections later this month!
