The Butterfly Trail
January 28 @ 1:00 pm - 4:00 pm
Join us on the Tucson Butterfly Trail for a day of Remembrance and Hope.
Visit all seven Butterfly Project memorials created to in memory of children who died in the Holocaust. The Community Food Bank will be present on the trail at the installation located behind Tucson Medical Center to collect donations and provide information about our services. Please stop by with your canned goods or monetary gifts. Help us spread awareness about and highlight childhood hunger.
You can pick up a Butterfly Trail passport at any of the Butterfly Project installations except for the Tucson Botanical Garden. Take it with you and have it stamped at every site!
The Butterfly Project is a call to action through education, the arts and memorial making. We teach social justice through lessons of the Holocaust, educating participants about the dangers of hatred and bigotry to cultivate empathy and social responsibility. By painting ceramic butterflies, which are displayed as symbols of resilience and hope, participants remember the 1.5 million children killed during the Holocaust. In this work, The Butterfly Project honors our commitment to the Survivors to Never Forget.
