Student Reflections
"I liked that while doing this task, we had time to think only about the person we were drawing."
"It is a really good way to teach about history, especially a very difficult topic like the Holocaust. The students can learn about it more easily.""
There was a good atmosphere during the workshop.""
It took all my concentration to try to observe the world from a different perspective."
"It was one of the most exciting experiences I’ve ever had."
"I was sad that I couldn’t create a portrait as good as the person deserved."
