JEWISH CULTURE FESTIVAL IN CRACOW

This tremendous festival has been held in Cracow for over fifteen years now. During this period, the
former Jewish district of Kazimierz has itself steadily regained its colours. 1) It is an event
like no other, during which the entire city quarter of Kazimierz is transformed for a week into a
centre for Jewish and Yiddish culture. The programme includes concerts, workshops, gallery
exhibits, museum presentations, dance, and food. It is pure joy to be there, not the least because it
gives the performers a chance to spend some real quality time hanging with each other, hatching
new musical projects. 2)

Every year in June or July visitors are able to enjoy celebrated Jewish and Jewish-inspired arts from
across the globe strutting their stuff in Kazimierz’s synagogue, cellars, theatres and cafés. Among
these venues, the glorious Tempel Synagogue stands out: a classic 19th-century synagogue restored
to a fully functional state, with excellent acoustics and room for a large audience. The festival
culminates in a huge open air concert on the picturesque Szeroka Street. 3)

The festival offers a unique insight into Poland’s rich Jewish legacy. During the Renaissance and
Baroque eras, Jews talked of Cracow as a ‘Jewish Paradise’, such was the extent of their liberties
and of the richness of cultural life in the city. 4) Their efforts can make an annual festival the
cornerstone of a cultural movement that ensures that the Jewish culture of Cracow endures all year
long. While there are other good Jewish music festivals in Europe, Cracow with its excellent
organization and an army of young volunteers, who guarantee that everything flows smoothly, is
certainly the Big One.

Culture is undoubtedly one of the brightest feathers in its cap.

F. The festival inspires many participants to learn Hebrew and Yiddish and

study the works of Polish Jewish literature and folklore.
