On 14 December 2025, we cordially invite you to the presentation of the graphic novels created in the ECHOES IN INK project. The Full Moon Gallery will showcase the creative works of young people who, together with artists, historians and educators, have embarked on a special search for traces: How can memory be made visible? How can stories from the past and present be told in pictures?"

The launch event not only opens the exhibition of the best graphic novels, but also the publication of the e-book, which documents the diversity of the results. In addition to a keynote on the "Art of Remembering", you can expect contributions from the young people themselves, who will present their work and talk about their experiences.

Together with members of the Jewish communities, artists and experts, we want to get into conversation - about the power of images, the telling of stories and the importance of a living culture of remembrance.
