Closing ceremony of the Jewish Culture Month festival

Closing of the Month of Jewish Culture with a theatre play: "Nobelovac i ja" (Nobel Laureate and Me)

Director and Adaptation: Stefan Sablić
Author: M. Fineman
Starring: Jelisaveta Seka Sablić and Branko Vidaković

The "Nobel Laureate and Me" is a witty, warm, and deeply moving play about love, longing, and the unexpected turns life can take. In captivating performances, the legendary Jelisaveta Seka Sablić and Branko Vidaković portray two characters who remind us that emotions, passion, and the need for human connection know no age.
Directed by Stefan Sablić, the production skilfully blends comedy with intimate drama, revealing how unfulfilled dreams, cherished memories, and enduring romantic longings often lie beneath the surface of everyday life. As the story unfolds, audiences are drawn into an unexpected, humorous, and touching journey that challenges stereotypes and celebrates the idea that life's most beautiful surprises often arrive when we least expect them.

Peisaj Incomplet – Locuri ale Amintirii și Uitării

The incorporation of Holocaust memory into the historical-cultural and commemorative canon, and the recurring demand for related exhibitions, continuously challenges museums to engage further. The project Places of Remembrance and Forgetting presents the memory of the Holocaust through three works: one poem by Dan Pagis and two photographs. In doing so, it creates the illusion of a return to the past, transforming distant and alienated objects into something both personal:
it initiates the visitor, making them a quasi-witness, while also articulating a new exhibition concept as a practice of combating antisemitism.

Includerea memoriei Holocaustului în canonul istorico-cultural și comemorativ, precum și cererea constantă de expoziții legate de acesta, provoacă în mod continuu muzeele să se implice mai profund. Proiectul Locuri ale Amintirii și Uitării prezintă memoria Holocaustului prin trei lucrări: o poezie de Dan Pagis și două fotografii.

EDJC 2025

As part of the European Days of Jewish Culture, the Jewish Community in the Republic of Macedonia hosted an unforgettable artistic evening celebrating the rich history, tradition, and wisdom of the Jewish people The event took place on September 30, 2025, in front of the Holocaust Memorial Center for the Jews of Macedonia and was attended by around one hundred guests, including the Minister of Justice of Macedonia, members of Parliament, ambassadors from the OSCE, Germany, Sweden, Spain, Croatia, as well as friends and supporters of the Jewish Community in Macedonia The presence of these distinguished guests highlighted the importance of the event as a space for cultural dialogue and the strengthening of community ties

The evening was filled with stories reflecting the wisdom of the old rabbis and the words of Nobel laureate Isaac Bashevis Singer Readings from Primo Levi’s If This Is a Man encouraged attendees to reflect on the importance of memory and the responsibility to pass experiences on to future generations Musical performances, ranging from Sephardic romances in Ladino to Yiddish songs, illustrated the deep connection between words and music, showing how melody can carry stories and emotions across time

One of the most emotional moments was the symbolic creation of a communal book, in which attendees wrote thoughts, words, and reflections on “people” and “book” These pages will be preserved as a lasting memory and part of the community’s archive The event demonstrated that a people live through their books, and books live through the people who read and experience them

The evening was more than an event; it was an experience that brought people together, inspired reflection, and celebrated the importance of cultural heritage It reaffirmed the power of community, literature, and music as means to transmit wisdom, memory, and love for roots and tradition
Photographs and materials from the event are available to the public through the official channels of the Jewish Community in the Republic of Macedonia

SHEKHINA

À l’occasion des Journées Européennes de la Culture Juive, profitez d’un spectacle à la synagogue le samedi 6 septembre à 20h par la Compagnie Porte Bagage “Shekhina”. Un spectacle alliant texte, composition musicale à la contrebasse, chant, danse.

Schätzeli cherche la Shekhina. Elle la cherche dans le rôti trop cuit, dans le vin que l’on se passe, dans les prières mécaniques de Opa. L’essentiel, c’est d’être ensemble. Comment ? Ça n’a pas d’importance. Héritage creusé de l’intérieur. Schätzeli avance courbée, marquée par l’exil. Au fil de ses errances, elle s’efforce de saisir son histoire familiale pour appréhender et définir sa propre identité. Il est dit que la Shekhina accompagne les exilés. Mais peut-on s’arracher les racines pour élever l’âme vers le foyer ?
