Violins of Hope Educator Reception

Sunday, May 1, 2022 @ 3:30 pm - 5:30 pm EDT

Violins of Hope Educator Reception

Get a first-hand look at The Violins of Hope coming to Pittsburgh in October 2023.

Please join Classrooms Without Borders, The Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh, and the Anti-Defamation League for an informational and inspiring gathering to explore how we can work together to bring lessons of Hope/Resilience and Perseverance to the Pittsburgh area students in a unique way.

Imagine the impact upon your music students learning and playing music composed in the concentration camps.

Then imagine the impact of some of your students actually playing that music on the very instruments that prisoners played in those very camps.

Imagine the ways in which history, art and language arts students might contribute to a Time Capsule to reveal our common humanity 50 years from now, or how your curriculum might prepare them to visit a docent-led exhibition of the Violins of Hope (travel expenses underwritten by the Violins of Hope-Pittsburgh).

We will explore the possibilities for collaboration among your colleagues and throughout your student body are exciting and only limited by your imagination.

Meet with inspiring professionals whom you already know and respect:

  • Founder and Executive Directory Classrooms Without Borders, Dr. Zipora Gur (Tsipy)
  • Director of the Holocaust Center of Pittsburgh, Dr. Lauren Apter Bairnsfather
  • Flavio Chamis, Music Professional, Composer, Conductor, Arranger, Producer, Sound Engineer and Educator
  • James Pasch, Regional Director of The ADL (Anti Defamation League)
