For more than 20 years, the European Days of Jewish Culture have been held in more than 30 countries throughout the month of September, with the aim of raising awareness of the cultural and historical heritage of the Jewish people. In this 2023 edition, the activities have been dedicated to the concept of memory, collective or individual, thanks to which Jewish history has been maintained and transmitted over the centuries.
At the Fundación Tres Culturas we consider the enhancement of the value of the Jewish legacy in its cultural and historical dimension to be an essential objective of action. Therefore, through the cycle 'Sepharad in Three Cultures', we want to contribute to the development of these days by programming a programme dedicated to the Jewish heritage, especially Sephardic.
A series of activities including music, literature and conferences have been programmed to raise awareness among the general public of the importance of the cultural contribution that Sepharad's imprint has bequeathed to global culture.
Programme of activities:
As part of this cycle we will be able to enjoy a concert by the singer Clara Campos, who will offer us a repertoire of Sephardic music from the Mediterranean. Lola Lafon will present her latest book, 'Cuando escuches esta canción', in which she recovers the voice of Anne Frank. In addition, in September we begin a new cycle of conferences of the Cátadra Al-Ándalus project, dedicated to great Andalusian Jewish personalities.
