CEP 2022: programme

The AEJM Curatorial Education Programme 2022 will take place from November 14th until November 18th in Vienna, Austria. The programme will be hosted by the Jewish Museum Vienna and will include excursions to Burgenland and Slovakia.

Preliminary programme outline:

• Viennese Jewish cemeteries; history and stories behind gravestones
• Visiting Bratislava, Slovakia – the Bratislava Jewish Community Museum; hands-on workshop focusing on challenges in Judaica collections at the Museum of Jewish Culture – the Slovak National Museum
• Trip to the Burgenland – the Wolf collection in Eisenstadt and the Jewish cemetery; workshop on gravestone inscriptions; the newly restored synagogue in Kobersdorf and the Jewish forest cemetery.
