Hear from curators about the traces of a culture that was almost entirely wiped out.



About

22nd November 2026 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm

Before the Holocaust, Poland had the largest Jewish population of any European country. Nearly all were murdered in the Holocaust. But Holocaust education often focuses on Nazi Germany. From the perspective of the victims, Poland was the country that was most transformed by the impact of the genocide. In this "Interspatial" event, you will be transported there: you will explore the beautiful Galicia Jewish Museum, and hear from it's curators about the traces of a culture that was almost entirely wiped out.

This event is available in person at the museum OR via livestream. Please see website for details.
