ESJF - European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative and Adolfas Ramanauskas-Vanagas gymnasium - Tolerance Educational Center invite you to take part in the online Masterclass "Protection of Jewish cemeteries in Lithuania" (April 25-26, 2023). European Jewish Cemeteries Initiative is a German-based non-profit organization, which has been working to protect and preserve Jewish cemeteries in Eastern and Central Europe since 2015. Jewish cemeteries are witnesses of the unique culture of Lithuanian Jewry, its life, death and rebirth. Since 1991, the Lithuanian government and Jewish institutions have made significant progress in the field of protection, memorialization and study of Jewish cemeteries. However, some Jewish cemeteries remain under threat. What can we - activists, teachers, historians, museum workers, journalists, lawyers - do today to secure the future of these unique historical monuments? During the Masterclass you can learn about Jewish cemeteries of Lithuania as a unique part of Lithuanian Jewish culture, train your skills in Hebrew tombstones reading, share your experience in protecting Jewish cemeteries, discuss the best ways and possible projects of protecting cemeteries in Lithuania in today’s conditions, as well as find out how ESJF can help in this work The Masterclass is implemented with the support of the European Commission grant and in consortium with the Foundation of Jewish Heritage and Centropa.
