• The Butterfly Project, a San Diego-based initiative, has established an international effort to paint one butterfly for each of the 1.5 million children killed in the Holocaust. The Holocaust Center, a self-funded affiliate of the Jewish Federation of Greater Pittsburgh, first brought the Project to the region in Spring 2017.
• “Not the Last Butterfly ” is the award-winning documentary film about The Butterfly Project, a non-profit organization who uses lessons of the Holocaust to educate about the dangers of hatred and bigotry through the painting of ceramic butterflies, permanently displayed around the world to memorialize each of the 1.5 million children who perished in the Holocaust.
