Μουσείο

THE PERMANENT EXHIBITION The permanent exhibition illustrates subject areas such as the synagogue, the Jewish holidays, traditional costumes, the Holocaust, the cycle of life and the history of Greek Jews, always in close correlation with the historical process, the yearly cycle and the human lifetime.

TEMPORARY EXHIBITIONS The Museum’s periodic exhibitions explore issues of memory, history and identity, emphasizing their social aspects as well. The Museum has a Contemporary Art Gallery, where, the first six years of its existence (1999 – 2005), nine art exhibitions have been presented. Furthermore, exhibitions and events with subjects related to contemporary art, literature, poetry and music, in general every form of human expression, are designed to cover cultural and artistic matters, to explore the timeless, multi-faceted nature of Greek Jewry and to establish the Museum as an active cultural center for the modern Greek society. The JMG has created a number of traveling exhibitions which have been shown in Greece and abroad.
