Members of the RutabagA Art Gallery in downtown Geneseo, at 108 North State St., are hosting the Holocaust Memorial Visual Arts Exhibit until April 4.
The opening reception for the exhibit will be held from 2 to 4 p.m. Sunday at RutabagA, at which time the winners of the contest who attend the reception will be introduced.
Entries in the annual Meyer and Frances Shnurman Holocaust Visual Arts Contest were created by students in grades 6-12 at area schools.
The public is invited to view the art work during regular gallery hours which are from 10:30 a.m. through 3 p.m. on Thursday through Saturday.
The contest is sponsored by the Jewish Federation of the Quad Cities, Quad City Arts, and the Yom Hashoah (Holocaust Remembrance Committee). The art work reflects the events and impact of the Holocaust.
