Art workshop for the children

The family is one of the oldest institutions, and family portraits were extremely important because they spoke of the spirit of the time in which they were created. Until the invention of photographs they were the only visual reminder of our loved ones.
Therefore, the workshops will be inspired by a painting from the collection of the Friedrich Museum of Fine Arts Johann Gottlieb Lieder (1780–1859), The Pejačević family in the Virovitica garden castle, 1811, oil on canvas, 285 x 398 cm, MLU, S-460.
Each of us has a family. It is made by people we love immensely. The family can be small or big. Join the workshops and paint your family! All participants can bring photos that they will be able to use in their work.

Jews in Krakow

Already during the time of King Casimir, Jews in Kraków played an important role in the regional economy. From the end of the 13th century, they were granted freedom of worship, construction of synagogues, freedom of trade, movement, travel and immigration. This contributed to the gradual increase of the Jewish community. Jews settled coming from nearer or more distant regions and countries to the east or west of Poland. Jews lived undisturbed with their Christian neighbors under the patronage of King Casimir. He understood that only the peaceful coexistence of different religions and peoples in the Kingdom can bring prosperity in all senses. What happened since then? Answers can be found in this lecture by Anđelko Srđak.
