Painting and Poem Part of October 27 Archive

Friends,

A painting and poem of mine are now included in the October 27 Archive, which documents the local and global impact of the October 27, 2018 attack against three Jewish congregations housed together within a synagogue building in Pittsburgh. It is a living repository, ever-growing to include voices from all over the world bound together in community.

Below is copy from the site which speaks to the work I produced:

Shortly after the October 27 attack, she wrote a memorial poem and accompanying painting for the victims titled, "El Kiddush Hashem; a prayer more than a poem." The painting and the poem later became the centerpiece of an exhibit titled "The Numbers Keep Changing," held at the Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh from April 9 through June 24, 2019. The title of the exhibit referred to ongoing discoveries of new victims of the Holocaust, pushing the number of total victims above the long-established total of 6 million.

You can see the work on the site here. And please explore the link above to see all the important work included in the archive to commemorate all that was lost on that truly sad and horrific day.

Yours,
Judy
