The memorial to child victims of war at #Lidice - 82 sculptures of children, cast in bronze. I've seen it in person, and it's a very powerful piece. It's also in need of restoration.

For my #birthday later this month, I'm asking for #donations to the restoration fund.

You can donate here (most of the page is in Czech, but donation details are in English): https://www.donio.cz/restaurovani-pamatniku-detskych-obeti-valky?lang=en
