Lecture
This year marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz-Birkenau on January 27, 1945. To commemorate this, we invite you to an online lecture by Stav Meishar, “Jewish Circus Artists Under National Socialism.” Stav Meishar, a circus artist and academic, has spent over a decade researching Jewish circus families in Nazi Germany. The talk explores their history, highlighting their achievements, tours, and acts, while also examining their fates during the Nazi regime. Using personal photos, testimonies, and stories, Stav shares these legacies with sensitivity and humor.
The event is organized by Paideia folkhögskola, Paideia – The European Institute for Jewish Studies and Jewish Community in Stockholm.
Free Entrance.
