Beloved: Children of the Holocaust is the incredible story of Mary Burkett, an untrained artist, who was inspired to draw a picture of a boy she found online – a boy who turned out to be Hersch Goldberg, a five-year-old killed in the gas chambers at Auschwitz. Hersch was the first of what would become a collection of 27 “beloved children” who have now inspired millions across the globe with their message of love and tolerance.
November 9 – 10 is called Kristallnacht. In 1938, Nazi leaders unleashed a series of pogroms against the Jewish population in Germany and recently incorporated territories. The night is also known as The Night of Broken Glass due to the shattered glass that littered the streets after the vandalism and destruction of Jewish-owned businesses, synagogues, and homes. Together we will remember this tragic night and the atrocities of the Holocaust while stepping out of the darkness to work together, to unite, and bring awareness to the Holocaust Memorial of Greenville.
This is an exclusive opportunity to see the film, Beloved: Children of the Holocaust, before wide distribution Spring 2023 and to learn about the Holocaust Memorial of Greenville and the public dedication, April 23rd, 2023.
The program begins with Arielle Nakdimon, President of Greenville Jewish Federation, sharing about the local impact of the Holocaust Memorial of Greenville. Caroline Warthen, Co-Chair of the Greenville Jewish Film Festival, will read a Holocaust survivor’s recollection of Kristallnacht. Mary Burkett will be available after the film for Q&A.
About Mary Burkett
Mary is just an ordinary person called to extraordinary circumstances. She is a retired nurse, wife, mother, and grandmother. Having had no artistic training, in January 2017, she began to create a living memorial to precious children killed in the Holocaust. In seven short months, Beloved: Children of the Holocaust, a collection of 27 beautiful portraits, was complete. Since that time, Mary has gone on to draw more than 100 portraits in five different collections, and her work has been viewed millions of times and recognized in the United States Congressional Record. A select number of Burkett’s pieces will be on display in the lobby before and after the film screening.
This program is brought to you through partnership between the Greenville Jewish Federation and the Greenville Jewish Film Festival.
In honor of Native American Heritage Month, Burton Street Community Center’s free indoor movie night focuses on a movie highlighting Native American culture.
