“A Visual Diary of the Past” – The Work of David Labkovski” Student Reflections and Responses to the Holocaust

 JACKSON ROBERTS   APRIL 17, 2022

For Yom HaShoah/Holocaust Commemoration 2022, the DLP has launched a Reflect & Respond Program which invites adults and students ages 12 and up to respond to Labkovski’s art work through poetry, prose, or art and to submit their responses to an online journal, which will be shared at the DLP virtual commemoration event on 4/28/22. The responses will also be displayed along with the launch of a new exhibit, “A Visual Diary of the Past,” which was curated by seven high school students who completed the DLP student docent training program and went on to graduate from the DLP student curation program. Each of these young curators brought their own skill set to the table and then collaboratively came together to explore this difficult history. The DLP is proud to present the new online exhibit, “A Visual Diary of the Past: The Work of David Labkovski,” which can be experienced on the David Labkovski Project website. The interactive exhibit can be used by teachers to educate their students about the Holocaust.
