Webinar: Behind the scenes of the Brest-Litovsk (Brisk) Jewish cemetery memorial project @ Online

An online update on the construction of the Brest-Litovsk Jewish Cemetery Memorial.

Over the last two decades, approximately 1,250 gravestones from the desecrated Jewish cemetery in Brest have been recovered. These gravestones are soon to become part of a memorial park.

This event will take you behind the scenes of the project, sharing insights into the memorial’s progress, its significance, challenges and the vision for its completion.

You’ll also learn how your support can make an impact in this campaign for resilience, remembrance, and resistance.

Designed by the American artist Brad J. Goldberg, the monument is an example of landscape art, with a broken circle of wall and walkway surrounding a forest of around 600 re-erected matzevot. It will be built on land that was part of the destroyed cemetery.
