    Anne Frank Exhibit Scheduled To Leave Decatur at End of Year

    Decatur Metro | August 31, 2009 | 12:18 pm

    This morning’s AJC front page story about the Anne Frank exhibit moving from the Old Courthouse in downtown Decatur to a strip mall in Sandy Springs in December, reminded me that I had looked into this story a few months back, after Susan sent in a note pointing to another article in the Sandy Springs Reporter.

    At the time, I sent an email to the Executive Director of the DeKalb History Center, Melissa Fogerty, to find confirm the news and learn of the DHC’s plans to fill the gap left by the Frank exhibit.  This was her response…

    The Anne Frank is a moving, or temporary, exhibit and the Georgia Commission on the Holocaust’s contract with DeKalb County is for three years (ending this year). Before locating here, the exhibit was in Kennesaw for three years. DHC is developing new exhibits to cover the history of DeKalb County, and temporary exhibits on special topics and areas in the county.
