Ann,
I saw this in Oak Park, IL. It was eerie and incredibly powerful. I brought tears to my eyes and my heart. I would encourage all to go.
Kelly
sounds awesome.
I went to Auchwitz two years ago - the shoes there undid me. Why that? God knows! But it's the truth.
this exhibit would do the same I'm sure.
every pair of shoes respresents a real person, a life,
precious and loved
