This year’s International Holocaust Remembrance Day (January 27) marked the 80th anniversary of the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp liberation. In commemoration of this event, the Emily Carr University of Art + Design (ECU) hosted a talk to recognize victims of the Holocaust and its impact on survivors. Project Director Dr. Charlotte Schallié was invited to discuss the graphic novel ‘But I Live: Three Stories of Child Survivors of the Holocaust’ with the ECU community, including students, faculty, and staff.

Dr. Schallié extends her gratitude the the ECU team for hosting the event:

I learned so much from all of you and was deeply touched by the ECU faculty and staff members who reflected on artwork made by Holocaust survivors and their descendants. It’s rare to find such a caring and supportive space of togetherness and belonging, and you created it for all of us! Thank you!
