Amnon Weinstein began collecting and restoring the violins more than 20 years ago\, and the collection is dedicated to the 400 family members he lost in World War II. Since then\, the instruments have been played by prominent musicians in venues worldwide\, giving voice not only to the owners of the violins\, but also to the millions of Jewish people who perished.  \nThe Violins of Hope exhibition will offer a unique educational opportunity through the Violins of Hope APP which will provide supplemental material and allow the visitor to engage in an intimate musical experience. Expanding on educational materials developed by Facing History & Ourselves whose mission is to help students learn about hatred and bigotry so they can stop them from happening in the future\, the exhibition will offer tours and programs for all grades\, faith-based organizations\, congregations and social justice agencies. \nThe Veterans Gallery is located in the Veterans Building at 401 Van Ness Ave. Suite 102.  \nClick to watch NBC Bay Area’s story on the exhibition\, January 22\, 2020 \nFor information regarding school visits and docent tours for your group\, please contact: Lisa Coscino lisa.v.coscino@gmail.com \n_____________________________________ \nCurator: Lisa Coscino  \n Exhibition Development and Research Assistance: Cindy Morton\nExhibition Development and Design: Sound\, Interactive and App: Sara Roberts \nThe Curatorial Team would like to thank the following for their invaluable research assistance and guidance: The Farkas Center for the Study of the Holocaust in Catholic Schools; JFCS Holocaust Center of San Francisco; UCSF School of Museum Management and James Grymes and the Weinstein Family. \nAdditional research assistance has been provided by: Peninsula JCC\, California History Center\, Facing History and Ourselves and Violins of Hope Nashville. \nMany thanks to our APP creator\, Jim Asnis and to our exhibit designer\, Julie Ho Sung \nSpecial thanks to the American Legion War Memorial Commission for hosting the Violins of Hope Exhibit in the Veterans Gallery in the SF Veterans Building\, and to Paul Cox and Janice Tong.
