Shadowboxes
Through researching their honoree’s life, students have created a shadowbox to honor their genocide survivors. The shadowbox contains different objects that relate to the victim’s life before, during, and in the case of survivors, after the genocide. Not every object directly relates to the victim’s life but all of the objects are symbolic in some way. Enjoy the shadowboxes and really look at the symbolism in them. A physical display of the shadowboxes can be found in the hallway between the Finkel and Houston Libraries.
