The “Project 2025 – Arche Musica” is an innovative German-Israeli research and education project Project of musical remembrance. It is run on a voluntary basis.
Project partners are the “Music Department and National Sound Archive of the National Library of Israel” in Jerusalem and the “Music Department of the Tel Aviv School of Arts”. The scientific project team processes, digitizes and transliterates the works collected in the “Arche Musica” and transfers them into the regular and barrier-free musical notation. Because of its special significance, Dr. Felix Klein, the Federal Government Commissioner for Jewish Life and the Fight against Anti-Semitism, has assumed patronage.
A central goal of the project is the research of secular Jewish-German music history and the establishment of a musical culture of remembrance for the prevention of anti-Semitism, which does not yet exist in this form.

Makom Sefarad is a cultural project dedicated to facilitating spaces of dialog and coexistence through activities and programs connected to the history and legacy of Jewish Spain.
Our activities and programs delve into the history of coexistence of the Spanish Jews alongside other peoples, and in the rich Sephardic tradition that resulted from their encounter with diversity, with the objective of identifying aspects of that tradition that might guide us as we face the challenges of life in a plural society today.
Makom Sefarad is an invitation to see opportunities for growth in encounters with difference, both as individuals and as a society.
Our Mission: To be a Point of Encounter
Makom means “place” in Hebrew. Makom Sefarad, therefore, signifies a place in Sefarad (Spain) to meet with the other, who may live, think, or be different from oneself.
