[HMDS] GK hosts event with the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum
GK is proud to host the "OUR WALLS BEAR WITNESS - DARFUR: WHO WILL SURVIVE TODAY?" is a mixed media event, taking place during Thanksgiving week, 2006 at the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, DC, as well as concurrently in the virtual 3-D reality on-line community, Second Life. Wall-sized images depicting the escalating genocide in Darfur will be projected onto the facade of the Museum as well as in SL. This represents not only the first time the national memorial's exterior is being used to highlight contemporary genocide, but also in Second Life on GK Island.
Visitors to GK Island will be able to view the exhibition with its powerful, thought-provoking images, as well as a 1 hour video of the actual installation at the GK theatre.
Teens on TSL are encouraged to drop by between Nov 22-26, 2006 to check out the event, leave their feedback, take a snapshot, and GK will reimburse $20L per snapshot submitted. For more information on the event by the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum, please go to www.ushmm.org
