Memory Quilt Project – Dates and Plans

To mark 2015, the 70th Year Anniversary of the Liberation of the Camps, the 2nd & 3rd Generation group is creating Memory Quilt in which every one of “The Boys” is commemorated.  The finished Memory Quilt will be displayed as a wall hanging. The London Jewish Museum is the first museum that has agreed to exhibit the Memory Quilt when finished.

We are asking each Survivor’s family to create something special to represent some aspect of the 45 Aid Survivor in your family.  The chosen theme might be: ‘Who am I?’ or include personal memories. It may be a significant object, a picture, a photo, or something that represents family or other achievements in the last 69 years, such as ‘My Journey’ or ‘My Legacy’.

We really hope each Survivor’s family, children and grandchildren, can join in on this creative journey.
