October 2024

David Labkovski Project is proud to celebrate DLP Ambassador Sophie Young, whose writing was recently published in JewishBoston.

In her article, Sophie reflects on a family trip to Venice, where she met DLP founder Leora Raikin and participated in an art workshop featuring the work of Holocaust survivor and artist David Labkovski. Through her thoughtful reflections, Sophie shares the emotional impact of engaging with Holocaust history through art and personal storytelling.

“Labkovski’s art is a masterful pursuit of emotion. Each work holds a story, a peek into the past, and a peek into the artist’s own memory…” Sophie wrote in her piece for JewishBoston.

Sophie’s publication highlights the power of student voices in preserving Holocaust history and advancing meaningful conversations about remembrance, education, and historical preservation. DLP is honored to support students like Sophie as they continue sharing these important stories with wider audiences.
