ArtoberVA PWYW | The Butterfly Project & Archives Tour at VHM
VHM 2000 East Cary St, Richmond, VA, United StatesJoin the Virginia Holocaust Museum for a behind-the-scenes archives tour and participate in The Butterfly Project! The Butterfly Project is a call to action through education, the arts and memorial-making. By painting ceramic butterflies, which are displayed as symbols of resilience and hope, participants remember the 1.5 million children killed during the Holocaust. After learning about artifacts from our collections, each participant will learn about a child who perished during the Holocaust and paint a ceramic butterfly in their memory. All butterflies painted will then be fired on behalf of the Museum and eventually used for a display here at VHM! We recommend this event for adults and students 6th grade and up. While this event is free and open to the public, space is limited. Register HERE!
