Exhibition: In the Land of Wooden Shoes – A Holocaust Remembrance

In the Land of Wooden Shoes – A Holocaust Remembrance opens June 12, 2026, in the Lenz Gallery at First Presbyterian Church in Graniteville.

This powerful exhibition, a collaboration between the Anne Frank Center and South Carolina artist Mary Burkett, tells the stories of children affected by the Holocaust through moving visual portraits and storytelling. More than an art exhibit, it is an immersive experience of remembrance—honoring young lives, fostering empathy, and inviting reflection.

Join us for an Opening Night Reception on Friday, June 12 at 6 p.m. in the Sturgis Gathering Area and Lenz Gallery.

The exhibition is on view Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, from June 12-Nov. 20.
