The Holocaust Memorial Center (HMC) in Farmington Hills hosted an
award ceremony May 17 for the second annual Kappy Family Anne
Frank Art & Writing Competition.
The competition is presented with support from the Kappy family.
Garry Kappy was born in Opatow, Poland. He was imprisoned in dif-
ferent labor camps when he was 15 years old and survived the horrors
of the Buchenwald and Auschwitz concentration camps. While Kappy
recognizes the importance of memorializing Holocaust victims, he felt it
was crucial to find a way to engage and educate young adults to com-
bat hatred and help prevent future genocides. This inspiration led to the
competition.
The award ceremony was attended by student winners, their families
and teachers as well as the Kappy family and HMC leadership and staff.
For many of the students, this was their first time meeting a Holocaust
survivor and was a truly humbling experience.
This year’s theme was “The Power of Hope.” The competition, open
to students in grades 9-12 in Oakland and Macomb counties, drew
submissions from more than two dozen high schools as well as home-
schooled students who created written and artistic responses to a
quote by Anne Frank: “Where there’s hope, there’s life. It fills us with
fresh courage and makes us strong again.”
The winning art and writing submissions are on display at the HMC
through Aug. 24. •
