'Creating Untitled' at Pallant House Gallery!

 
 Portrait of Holocaust Survivor Gena Turgel MBE




As part of an exhibition called 'Creating Untitled' at Pallant House Art Gallery in Chichester, we will be presenting some artwork based on our experience of visiting Auschwitz. Our pieces of art will be based upon our main message of 'individuality'. The portrait on the left, created by Merryn Kerrigan, is one of Gena Turgel a Holocaust Survivor and is created solely out of her name in pencil. We are excited to create more portraits and other art just like this one. If you live near Chichester come down to Pallant House Gallery to see some of our Auschwitz Artwork, the exhibition takes place 22 April – 27 April 2014.

Holocaust Memorial Display Board and Newspaper Article...

Wear your own Shoes to School Day Memorial Board

On Friday 14th February, we completed a huge section of our Next Steps project which was a Memorial Display Board presenting a huge number of pictures taken on our 'Wear your own shoes to school day' on Holocaust Memorial Day of this year. We raised over £600 for the Holocaust Educational Trust whilst promoting our main message that "Numbers are important, it is the individual lives that we should remember."



We are extremely proud of this event and are pleased that the culmination of all our ideas came together to create a successful day.
