The Anne Frank Project's fifth annual conference, AFP 2013: Transforming Lives, takes place next week, September 11–13. Kicking off this year's conference is a unique collaboration between the Anne Frank Project, the Anne Frank Center USA, the Burchfield Penney Art Center, Erie 1 BOCES, and the Holocaust Resource Center of Buffalo. These organizations are uniting to present the multifaceted Anne Frank: A History for Today from September 10 through October 6. Attendees are promised a personal immersion into the life of Anne Frank: a detailed, rarely seen history of Anne Frank's life and how it relates to today, a computer-generated virtual trip into the secret annex where Anne and her family hid from the Nazis during World War II, and a Holocaust survivor speaker series.
Holocaust Survivor Speaker Series:

To schedule a group tour, please call Mary Kozub at ext. 3156.
Next week our campus will be abuzz with scholars, artists, activists, students, and professionals examining this year's theme, "Transforming Lives."
