Middle school teacher continues legacy of local Holocaust survivor

Shulamit Bastacky believed that every child should have a teddy bear. As a child during the Holocaust, Bastacky was hidden from the Nazis by a nun in her native Poland. She spent the first several years of her life isolated and without much human touch. Neither did she have a favorite stuffed animal to bring her comfort. Her childhood experiences moved Bastacky, who died Jan. 1, to launch Shulamit’s Teddy Bear Project, collecting toys for children in need. Scott Vensel, an eighth-grade language arts teacher, recalled the first time he brought Bastacky, a frequent speaker at schools, to Dorseyville Middle School in the Fox Chapel Area School District.

Free Little Art Gallery opens in Sharpsburg

Goldberg said it was the community engagement aspect that drew her in. “We are all really pleasantly surprised how quickly it took off and how many people have participated in just the first week,” she said. There’s been a mix of photography, drawings, watercolor paintings, mixed media art, pour paintings and more. “We love the variety of art and encourage small 3D works also,” Goldberg said. “Art helps everyone feel good and we want everyone to be creative and add to the arts in Sharpsburg.” Artists are encouraged to print their name on the back of the piece in an effort to build their portfolio. Photos are shared on Instagram.
