Held on or around Lithuanian Holocaust Memorial Day on September 23, the annual Reading of the Names—or Vardai—event is a privately organised initiative during which the names of Lithuanian Holocaust victims are read out in the towns and villages in which they perished. Discovering that the event was of no interest to any of the 300,000 or so residents of Kaunas, in 2016 IC4LP organised its first Vardai event inside the city’s former Gestapo headquarters, and continued to do so in different locations around Kaunas until 2019.
