Exhibition “(post)Jewish… Shtetl Opatow Through the Eyes of Mayer Kirshenblatt”

Publié le 5 September 2023

Until 16 December 2024

This exhibition allows visitors to experience the feelings of a young man growing up in the Opatow shtetl through the works he created in his adult life. We rediscover the Jewish life of yesteryear, destroyed during the Shoah. This daily life with its poor neighbourhoods made up of wooden houses where Opatow’s Jews lived. The exhibition was produced with the help of local residents. The exhibition also showcases the projects being developed in connection with the renewal of Jewish life in the region.
