About Vedem Foundation

Since 2015, Vedem Foundation has produced, operated and promoted traveling and multimedia exhibits, workshops, panels and other educational content dedicated to the work of artistic activists. The Foundation's award-winning Vedem Underground museum exhibit spotlights the heroic work of World War II era teenage prisoners of war in Eastern Europe. This group of boys created a secret society that produced the longest-running underground magazine within a Nazi camp.

The Foundation's Zines of Terezin exhibit is expanding on Vedem Underground to highlight six hand-made secret magazines created by adolescent boy and girl captives of Czechoslovakia's Terezin concentration camp between 1941 and 1944. These exhibits have been displayed in museums and locales such as Los Angeles's Museum of Tolerance, Atlanta's Breman Museum, Dallas's Love Field, Holocaust Museum Houston and the Oregon Jewish Museum & Center for Holocaust Education, among other institutions. The Foundation has been profiled by the Atlanta Journal-Constitution, Smithsonian Magazine, PBS, NPR, Jerusalem Post and Portland Tribune. The Foundation's exhibits have also been shown by educational institutions such as the University Texas at Austin, Texas A&M University and the Highland Park Independent School District in Dallas, and is slated to travel across the U.S., Canada and Europe.
