Just something I came across that I thought I would share:1,500,000 children died in the Holocaust. In an effort to remember them, Holocaust Museum Houston is collecting 1.5 million handmade butterflies.
The butterflies will eventually comprise a breath-taking exhibition, currently scheduled for Spring 2012, for all to remember.
Please facilitate the "I Never Saw Another Butterfly" activity and create as many handmade arts-and-crafts butterflies as possible. This project may be completed by all ages as individuals or groups.
a.. Butterflies should be no larger than 8 inches by 10 inches.
b.. Butterflies may be of any medium the artist chooses, but two-dimensional submissions are preferred.
c.. Glitter should not be used.
d.. Food products (cereal, macaroni, candy, marshmallows or other perishables) also should not be used.
If possible, e-mail a photograph of your butterflies, to butterflyproject@hmh.org.
Please send or bring your butterflies to the Museum by June 30, 2011, with the following information included:
a.. Your name,
b.. Your organization or school,
c.. Your address,
d.. Your e-mail address, and
e.. The total number of butterflies sent.
Mail or bring your butterflies to:
