Exhibition Details

The annual Max May and Lydia May Holocaust Art and Writing Contest is named after the grandparents of Renate Frydman, Director of the Dayton Holocaust Resource Center. Each year, students in grades 5–8 (Division I) and 9–12 (Division II) attending public school, parochial school or home school within the Miami Valley are invited to learn more about the Holocaust and share their reflections through artistic expression and creative writing. Select works are then chosen for an exhibition at the Dayton Art Institute.
