SUMMARY:Never Again Is Now (“Nie wieder ist jetzt”)
DESCRIPTION:Join us on Wednesday\, February 25\, for an evening of reading and conversation with author and illustrator Stephanie Lunkewitz and Holocaust survivor Mary Bauer\, presented in partnership with the Goethe International Charter School. \nStephanie Lunkewitz will speak about the life of Eva Szepesi\, whose Holocaust testimony she illustrated and narrated in her book Ich war Eva Diamant. She will reflect on how Eva Szepesi’s story has become intertwined with her own life\, and on the responsibility of carrying survivor voices forward through art and storytelling. \nMary Bauer will share reflections on her own experiences as a survivor\, offering a firsthand account of the long aftermath of the Shoah. \nTogether\, the conversation will explore how three very different lives\, Eva’s\, Mary’s\, and Stephanie’s\, intersect\, and what these interwoven stories reveal about remembrance\, responsibility\, and the urgency behind the phrase “Never Again Means Now.” \nThe discussion will be moderated by Anne-Christine Witzgall\, author and co-founder of the Goethe International Charter School. \nPrior the program\, guests are invited to a complimentary garden reception beginning at 6pm. The program will begin in the A-Frame Theater at 7pm. \nBios \nStephanie Lunkewitz is a German-American illustrator and author who grew up in East Germany and came to the West after the fall of the Berlin Wall. Her work spans textile design\, illustration\, and children’s literature. Lunkewitz divides her time between Frankfurt and Los Angeles. \nMary Bauer was born in Budapest in 1927 and survived Auschwitz-Birkenau\, multiple camps\, and a death march before being liberated in 1945. She immigrated to the United States in 1951 and has since dedicated herself to Holocaust education through schools\, colleges\, and the Holocaust Museum Los Angeles. \nAnne-Christine Witzgall was born in West Berlin and is an author and co-founder of the Goethe International Charter School\, where she works at the intersection of education\, literature\, and cultural exchange. She holds a Masters in Journalism and is a tour guide at the Museum of Tolerance.
