LiberArte is a project of the Terezin Music Foundation. It unites celebrated poets, composers, and performing artists to express the universal yearning for freedom. The inspiration is the 70th anniversary in 2015 of the end of WWII and the liberation of the Nazi camps.  “With one of the world’s great catastrophes still in living memory, it is time to better understand why so many still long for freedom. Who better than artists, who are often the truth-tellers of their times, to address this question?" —Mark Ludwig, TMF Executive Director
