Get involved in the Karen Becher Essay Award, and the National Holocaust Centre and Museum's free Essay Writing Webinar on Tuesday 25th February at 17:00. The webinar will provide advice and support for the Award, a new opportunity for young people.
The Award honours our late Educator, Karen Becher, who sadly passed away in January last year. It is aimed at 16-18 year olds, and we ask them to write their own response to a proposed essay question. The best essayists will have the chance to have their work celebrated with an event held at the centre. The winner will receive £500.00 and have their work published on the Holocaust Listening Project.
The title for this year is 'Does free speech build or break a community?' Submit your 1200 word essay response by March 31st.
