Winner's of the Art, Writing and Film Contest at the Holocaust Center for Humanity
I was invited to jury the annual art contest for the Holocaust Center For Humanity in Seattle. I judged the high school age visual art entries, both the artwork and their statements. The theme was a quote by Elie Wiesel. “There may be times when we are powerless to prevent injustice, but there must never be a time when we fail to protest.” In light of the past 6 months it seems a most topical theme. The decision was difficult and I was impressed by the artwork and the student's thoughtful statements. Their compassion, intelligence and ability to articulate both in word and image were impressive. Perhaps the future may be in better hands. I featured it for the Huffington Post and the article is here. I have included many of the winner's images and have a link to the other film and writing winner's. Congratulations to everyone.
