A compelling exhibit but it

A compelling exhibit but it is not "coming to Jo’burg direct from Lithuania and the UK". The exhibition is currently at the Cape Town Holocaust Center and will be there through the 29th of April. If you are in Cape Town you need to hurry down and see it at 88 Hatfield Street in Gardens and at the same time you can catch the wonderful 'Muizenberg Exhibit" at the South African Jewish Museum.
