The Jewish Museum of Greece participated again this year in the celebration of the International Day of Museums on Thursday, May 18, 2023, offering free admission to the public and a guided tour of the periodical exhibition "Stone Routes - Stories from Stone: Jewish Inscriptions in Greece" and subtitled "Art of Memory and of Commemoration".
The visitors who chose to celebrate International Museum Day with us had the opportunity to "travel" in time and through the dialogue of ancient inscriptions with modern works of art to discover new aspects of an ancient world.
May 18th is celebrated all over the world as "International Museum Day". Each year it focuses on a specific topic related not only to museums but also to the protection of cultural heritage in general. For 2023, the International Council of Museums (ICOM) has chosen the theme "Museums, Sustainability and Quality of Life".
