Major exhibition heads for Peel

by isleofman.com 31st July 2009

An acclaimed exhibition about the experiences of Anne Frank during the Nazi holocaust, is to be staged in the Isle of Man next year.

The Anne Frank [+ You} exhibition has attracted huge interest wherever it's been shown, with hour-long queues waiting to see it in Coventry last year.

The Frank family and four friends hid in an attic in Amsterdam for two years before they were betrayed and sent to death camps, in which only Anne's father survived.

The young Anne's diary has since become a worldwide symbol of courage and the power of the human spirit.

The exhibition will be staged in Peel and aims to challenge young people to explore what it means to live in a free society.

Project coordinator Catherine Quirk says it promises to be a powerful experience:
