Join us for a powerful call to action through the arts, using thelessons of the Holocaust, to discuss the dangers of hatred and bigotry. Led by Cheryl Rattner Price, Co-Founder and Executive Director, and Jan Landau, Co-Founder, of The Butterfly Project, this timely event will include:

• A special viewing of NOT The Last Butterfly, an award-winning documentary about The Butterfly Project, still in film festivals.
• A brief description of The Butterfly Project and discussion.
• An opportunity for participants to be part of a world-wide effort to remember and memorialize the 1.5 million children who perished in the Holocaust. Each participant will paint a ceramic butterfly, and, together, we will create a work of art to symbolize that we each have a voice and need to be responsible to stand up to injustice.

The event will be held on Wednesday, October 4th, 5:30 - 7:30 pm, in the Kroc IPJ's Peace and Justice Theatre.

This event is co-sponsored by the University of San Diego College of Arts and Sciences, University Ministry, The Jewish Student Union, Hillel of San Diego, the Humanities Center, the Changemaker Hub, School of Leadership and Education Sciences and The Kroc Institute for Peace and Justice.
