program and exhibit to their
schools in the process edu-
cating their peers.
Such was the case with stu-
dent docents from Oak Park
High School, Aliza Lam,
Aviva Medved and Maddy
Sean, who brought the exhib-
it to their school.
After completing the DLP
Student Docent Training
Program, Aviva Medved,
a senior at Oak Park High
School, shared her thoughts
on her journey: “I became a
wiser and more empathetic
individual.” She stressed the
importance of understand-
ing history, stating that “to
create a brighter future for
us all, we have to under-
stand our history. This expe-
rience helps people take that
first step, which is extremely
valuable. It doesn’t matter
who you are or what your
background is — I believe
everyone can learn from
Labkovski’s story.”
Applications for the Fall
International Student Docent
and Leadership program are
open and there is no fee to
apply.
For students searching for
meaningful volunteer work
and teachers looking to share
an impactful project-based
program with their students,
the David Labkovski Project
provides a perfect fit by
allowing students to expand
their knowledge, explore
the world of art, learn about
the Holocaust through an
engaging approach and join a
welcoming community.
“Empowering students to
educate others while merging
history, art and technolo-
gy is key to a 21st-century
Holocaust education,” Raikin
says.

gram at davidlabkovskiproject.org/
