How can art help young people relive and understand some of the most difficult pages from the history of the last century?
Students from Austria, Lithuania, Poland and Romania will visit the Gusen and Mauthausen Memorials to take part in the eighth edition of the educational project 'Sound in the Silence'. 

Direct contact with history will inspire young people and their teachers to become involved in artistic activities together: the young artists will turn their reflections and observations into a performance based on sound, word and movement. They will be assisted by the rapper and producer Dan Wolf (USA), the choreographer Katarina Rampackova (Slovakia), the performer Sean Palmer (UK), the psychologist Tetiana Krukovska (Ukraine) and educators from the Gusen and Mauthausen Memorials. The result of their work will be on display on 15 October at 6 pm. 

The performance will be followed by a discussion with the artists, the educators leading the workshop and the young people involved on new methods in historical education.

Date:  15 October 2022 at 6 p.m. 
Venue: House of Remembrance in St. Georgen an der Gusen (Marcel-Callo-Straße 3, 4222 St. Georgen / Gusen)
