Roz Jacobs und Laurie Weisman: The Memory Project

Die beiden New Yorker Künstlerinnen verbinden in ihrem Projekt Kunst, Kunsterziehung und Zeitzeugenschaft.

Projektselbstbeschreibung: "The Memory Project is a catalyst for thinking about the impact of the Holocaust on individuals, about the potency of the creative process, and the importance and possibilities of communicating history across generations.

It’s ideal for use as an introduction to the Holocaust with middle and high-school students, and can be used at any point in your curriculum. Many materials are available free or charge." - link
