SOUTH AFRICA TO AUSTRALIA: HOW, WHY, WHEN AND ... HOWZIT BEEN?

Opening mid December 2008!

     

EXHIBITION: Love in War (Dates to be advised).

The Sydney Jewish Museum is currently researching an exhibition titled Love in War.  This exhibition looks at how love manifested itself during the Holocaust, one of the darkest periods in human history. It became a source of strength, a reason to survive, a form of spiritual resistance, and a means of healing after Liberation.

We are looking for love stories from this period. If you met or married your sweetheart during this time or know anyone who did, we are interested. If you have testimonies, photos, objects, or anything related to love in wartime such as presents from your wedding, invitation cards, thank you cards, letters of congratulation, wedding dress, but also any messages of love such as love letters, Mother’s Day cards, New Years cards, etc, we would love to hear from you.

If you wish to participate in our exhibition, please contact Shannon Maguire in the curatorial department of the Sydney Jewish Museum.  Phone 9360 7999 or email smaguire@sjm.com.au
