Art & Remembrance Inc is a Washington, DC-based organization that uses art and personal narratives to honor the courage and resilience of individuals who have experienced injustice, with a particular focus on the Holocaust survivor Esther Nisenthal Krinitz. Through Esther's exquisite fabric collages and embroidery, Art & Remembrance aims to foster understanding, compassion, and social justice, offering educational resources, community engagement, and exhibits to bring Esther's legacy to a wider audience.
With a mission to recognize individual stories of survival and inspire change, Art & Remembrance showcases Esther's 36 works of art in the Fabric of Survival Gallery, accompanied by narrated video tours. The organization also provides lesson plans for middle and high school students, linking Esther's art and story to contemporary social justice issues, and offers opportunities for communities to engage in deep conversations and workshops around present-day injustices. Additionally, Esther's powerful journey and message are brought to life in an award-winning documentary film, and her artwork is currently exhibited at the American Visionary Art Museum in Baltimore.
