On July 11, 2017 Lviv hosted discussion “Separately on the Shared: What Jewish Museums are Needed in Eastern Europe?” This was the first event in this year's lecture-discussion series “Jewish Days in the City Hall: (Un)Displayed Past in East European.”

The preservation of Jewish heritage as well as its inclusion as part of renewed Ukraine’s national narrative is increasingly relevant today. The Interest to Jewish heritage in Ukraine nowadays coincides with a sort of “boom” in Jewish museums in Eastern Europe, where several large-scale museum projects have been implemented over the past few years.

Dear Friends!

Dnipro continues to commemorate Jews – victims of the Nazi terror in the city during the occupation. This work will end with the construction of a memorial complex, which would include the names all killed Dnipropetrovsk Jews.

Up to date, more than 3,5 thousand names have been collected. However, according to researchers, only in October 1941 up to 13 thousand people became the victims of mass executions. Restoring the memory of all innocent people killed is our moral obligation.

The venerable delegation from Israel has recently visited to Dnipro. Among the guests there were Shalom Norman, CEO Harry Oscar Triguboff Institute; Eyal Gover,Board Member of the Triguboff Foundation; Elazar Stern, member of the Knesset and head of Lobby of Religion and State, together with his wife Dorit Stern; Benny Lidsky, representative of Jewish Agency in Jerusalem. On June 16 the guests met chief Rabbi of Dnipro city and region Shmuel Kaminezki, talked with representatives of the Jewish community.

On June 21, 2017 “Tkuma” Institute and the Holocaust Museum was visited by Oleksandr Panashchenko, historian, Deputy Director of Novooleksandrivska School (Dnipro region). He often participates in “Tkuma” Institute scholarly and educational projects as well as in various historical forums. He decided to donate his family relics, which are more than 80 years old, to our Museum exhibition. These items will find their place in our exhibition dedicated to the Holodomor of 1932-1933. Mr. Panashchenko shared family memories of those terrible times.
