The Shadow Museum Youth Committee (Schattenmuseum) consists of 13 young people between the ages of 11 and 21. It was founded in 2018 after several years of collaboration with the Jewish Museum Berlin. Together with sideviews e.V., the young people further develop their experiences in various art institutions, currently in the House of the Cultures of the World (HKW). On the basis of artistic formats, they advise the institutions on issues concerning their suitability for young people. The youth committee meets weekly and in holiday workshops. The projects are continuously documented on www.schattenmuseum.de.
