Join us at the Henry and Sandra Friedman Holocaust Center for Humanity to paint stones honoring the 1,500,000 children lost during the Holocaust. The stones will be placed at the Anne Frank Tree, which is planted in the Seattle Center's Peace Garden. This activity will be offered every Sunday and Wednesday from 10:00am - 4:00pm. 

The Holocaust Center for Humanity is one of 11 U.S. organizations that received a sapling from the original Anne Frank Tree in Amsterdam. The sapling was planted in 2016 at the Seattle Center and was dedicated to the city of Seattle. (More about the Anne Frank Tree)

Stones painted by participating children will be placed at the base of the Anne Frank tree as an act of remembrance and hope. In the Jewish faith, stones are placed as symbols of life and memory.

During their visit to the Holocaust Center, children and their families can explore the Center’s current exhibition and artifacts from local Holocaust survivors and their families. exhibit includes artifacts on loan from the Auschwitz-Birkenau Memorial and Museum in Poland.
