I Never Saw Another Butterfly
Sunday, April 29 - 2:00pm
$12 general admission, $8 for members, seniors and students 
A triumph of the human spirit, I never Saw Another Butterfly shares the hopes, the fears, and the beauty of the children of Terezin. Over 15,000 children passed through Terezin Concentration Camp during World War II; fewer than 100 survived. Their true story, told through the artwork and poetry they left behind, creates a compelling picture of defiance and of vibrant life.
