Participation in other Exhibitions and Events

Household items used in Jewish holidays from the collection of the Jewish Museum were lent to the Hellenic Children’s Museum as part of its programme “Collections from other Museums” in December.

In another instance of its collaboration with other museums, the J.M.G. lent a yellow “Magen David” made of cloth to the Imperial War Museum in London. The latter used the star as part of its permanent Holocaust exhibition and its two-year lease has already been renewed.

In November, after an invitation from the Greek Parliament, the Jewish Museum took part in the exhibition “Thrace, 80 years since its Annexation to Greece” with photographic material from the Jewish Communities of Thrace. The exhibition was inaugurated by the Greek President, Mr. K. Stephanopoulos.

Τhe Jewish Museum of Greece was invited and took part with material from its archives in four photographic exhibitions in schools, cultural centres and educational institutions.
