Proudly

The traveling Forbidden Art exhibit, a collection of images
of artwork and sculptures created by concentration camp
prisoners while imprisoned by the Nazis during World War
II, will be shown from March 20-April 6, at the Wixom Public
Library, 49015 Pontiac Trail.
The exhibit was developed and is presented in North
America by the Polish Mission of the Orchard Lake Schools
in exclusive partnership with the Auschwitz-Birkenau State
Museum of Poland (A-B Museum).
The City of Wixom will open the exhibit with an almost-
black-tie reception at 5 p.m. Sunday, March 19, at the Wixom
Community Center. The reception will open with author,
historian and distinguished lecturer Teresa Wontor-Cichy
of the A-B Museum, who will give her emotional interpreta-
tion of the art and artists featured in this exhibit. Afterward,
guests will mingle while enjoying music, wine and appetiz-
ers provided by local sponsors. Guests will also be treated to
a private group 45-minute viewing of the exhibit. Tickets for
the reception are $25; call (248) 624-0894 or email sbanks@

Holocaust Memorial
Center’s Annual Art &
Writing Competition

The deadline for the Kappy
Family Anne Frank Art & Writing
Competition from the Holocaust
Memorial Center Zekelman Family
Campus is quickly approaching. The
entry deadline is Friday, March 31.
The theme of the first annual
competition is “The Power of One,”
emphasizing the impact that an
individual can — and must — make
in the world.
Open to Oakland County students
in grades 8-12, the competition
invites them to create a written or
artistic response to the following
quotation of Anne Frank’s: “How
wonderful it is that no one need wait
a single moment before starting to

improve the world.”
The competition includes three
art categories: drawing, painting and
photography. Pieces must be two-
dimensional and not exceed 18” x
24.” Each also must include a 150- to
200-word artist statement. It also
includes three writing categories:
poetry, essay or short story. These
entries may not exceed three, single-
spaced pages. First, second and third
place prizes will be awarded in each
of the categories.
For more information, rules and
to access a registration form, visit
holocaustcenter.org/competition or
contact Haley Schreier at (248) 553-
