Creative Activism Project


*The event has already taken place on this date: Mon, 05/31/2021
The Czech Center Museum Houston is preparing the Creative Activism Now exhibit that will showcase videos and artifacts that depict the terrors of social injustice and oppression in our country and around the world. This project is inspired by the Jewish Kids who, despite being held in the concentration camp, Terezín, didn't lose hope and pushed through to protest the Nazi's mission by way of art. We invite you to create an artifact, image, or video that discusses injustice and critical social issues in history or today. We will list it on our website and exhibit your piece in our museum.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

We developed the Creative Activism Project to help children learn about the Holocaust while discovering their creative potential. The CCMH designed this project as a workshop and exhibit about the lives of young people interred in the Terezin Concentration Camp. Their example shows how art can serve as a relief in unimaginable circumstances.

The most inspiring pieces of artwork will receive awards. The top student prize will be a laptop, while adult prizes will include gift baskets. Samolik says, "We want to unite and inspire young artists in our community with this project, giving them a chance to be proud of their work and to feel heard."

Submit your videos or images either through:

Website: Czechcenter.org/creative-activism-home

Directly to our email:

development@czechcenter.org

Once submitted, your art has a chance of being exhibited in the museum's Creative Activism Exhibit in 2021!

The deadline for submissions is May 31, 2021
