Unique exhibits

“The significance of the exhibition goes beyond its time,” said Dr. Gavriel Rosenfeld, president of the Center for Jewish History. “There is an immediate political context today – a surge in anti-Semitism around the world and hatred of other groups. Anne Frank lived and died as a young Jewish girl, but her message of tolerance and universal acceptance resonates far beyond the Jewish community.”

The exhibition will highlight the story of Anne's family from their time in Germany, their move to the Netherlands and their decision to go into hiding until their discovery by the Nazis, their deportation, Anne's death and her father's post-war decision to publish his daughter's diary.

The exhibition contains artefacts that have never been displayed publicly before, including Anne Frank's first photo album, handwritten poems, and letters to and from her father Otto Frank.

Among the items on display is one of the yellow stars that Jews were ordered to wear in occupied Netherlands, as well as the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress, won by Shelley Winters for her work in George Stevens' 1959 film The Diary of Anne Frank.

Visitors will be able to connect emotionally and intellectually with Frank’s moving narrative. The exhibition reveals Anne not only as a victim of war, but also as a determined young woman, a talented writer with her own dreams and aspirations.
