The posters are being exhibited in the window grid running in one long band around the university building, so it could be seen from the street. At the beginning of December, all the posters were also projected onto the window grid at night during the Kolding Light Festival . The exhibition will continue until the end of February 2021. The show was made possible by Rikke Hansen and the efforts of the staff; Mette Thrane Frandsen, Alan Schmidt, Nina Prochniewska, Emil Toft Beier and Mia Friis, and the students from the Design School Kolding.

On November 24th, we had the opening of the Tolerance Poster Show in the Ximen Red House in Taipei.

On November 16th, the International Day of Tolerance , the Tolerance Poster Show was displayed in the center of Zagreb on the fence of the Botanical Garden . Here is a link to a short video of the show . Unfortunately only 24 hours later, the show was "attacked" by Neo-Nazis graffitis. On the posters, they wrote "NDH", which is the abbreviation for Nezavisna Država Hrvatska (Independent State of Croatia) a Second World War puppet state of Nazi Germany. On others, they graffitied the letter "U" which is the symbol for Ustaša the Second World War Croatian fascist organization. And they even wrote "Smrt Srbozločincima" (Death to the Serbian criminals). Luckily, the organizers of the show figured out how to remove this hate speech and the symbols. Outrage over this vandalism, was expressed through all news media in Croatia. Here , here , here , and here are some of the local media reactions. You can see the video of the show here . This show
