Overview
Designed educational, marketing, and exhibition materials to help the museum preserve Holocaust storiesThe Holocaust Museum LA is dedicated to preserving the history and lessons of the Holocaust. They seek to educate visitors about the importance of compassion and understanding, preserve Holocaust stories for future generations, and engage visitors to stand against prejudice and injustice.
I had the opportunity to work with Holocaust Museum LA as a freelance graphic designer, to support their goal of educating the public about the Holocaust and fostering compassion, understanding and tolerance.
During my tenure, I undertook a variety of design projects that were critical to the museum’s operations, outreach, and exhibitions:
CHILDHOOD LEFT AT THE STATION EXHIBIT
My most significant project was the creation of a temporary exhibit titled "Childhood Left at the Station." This exhibit highlighted the experiences of children involved in the Kindertransport, a rescue operation that saved thousands of Jewish children during the Holocaust. I worked closely with the Director of Education to ensure the exhibit was thoughtfully designed and impactful.
My responsibilities included leading the end-to-end process, from brainstorming ideas to creating iterations and final designs, collaborating with curators to align the visual narrative with historical accuracy and sensitivity and managing communication with the printing company to ensure high-quality production of exhibit panels. These panels also act as a traveling exhibit, which has since been showcased at other museums to broaden its educational impact.
MARKETING MATERIAL
In addition to the exhibit, I also had the opportunity to assist the education department in marketing and print material. To expand the museum’s reach and engage the community, I created news advertisements, event calendars and promotional material. I also designed a comprehensive guide to assist educators in facilitating thoughtful and age-appropriate discussions about the Holocaust with their students. The guide provided tools to navigate sensitive topics while encouraging critical thinking and empathy.
THE WORLD THAT WAS MAPA more illustrative project includes a pair of map depicting European Jewish communities. One map shows the number of years of existence for Jewish communities, highlighting customs, cultures and deep roots. The other map illustrates the number and percentages of Jewish demographics prior to the holocaust.
