with Jonathan Ornstein
Talk, Q&A, Refreshments
He lives, breathes, chants and repeats his slogans every day, all day: “building a Jewish future in Krakow”, “Krakow, the city of Jewish rebirth”, “we can’t change the number of those murdered by the Nazis during the Holocaust, we can, however change the number of those Jewish Poles lost to the Jewish world”, “Judaism is defined not by death and destruction but by life, survival and our ability to adapt to new circumstances”, “If we can rebuild Jewish life down the road from Auschwitz, what does that say about the resilience of the Jewish people”?
The JCC of Krakow is the primary institution providing social, educational, and community oriented services to the Jewish community of Krakow. Opened in April 2008 by HRH, The Prince of Wales, the JCC has quickly established itself as the focal point of Jewish life in the city both for Krakowians as well as visitors from Poland and abroad.
