From Monday 23 January, for two weeks, Blackburn Cathedral will host two exhibitions designed to give our community the opportunity to learn about Jewish culture and customs.
The ‘Jewish Living Experience’ is a touring exhibition explaining Judaism through beautifully illustrated display panels and cultural artefacts. School groups will be taking part in educational activities that promote experiential learning and respect.
‘They’re only Pictures’ is a thought-provoking exhibition of photographs of Auschwitz taken by an interfaith group on a recent visit. It focuses on the impact of community dialogue on our understanding of dignity and mutual respect. For information regarding public opening times, email: info@blackburncathedral.com
These exhibitions, which are open to anyone, have been organised in collaboration with Blackburn with Darwen Standing Advisory Council on Religious Education (SACRE), Blackburn Diocese Board of Education, Blackburn Cathedral, North East Religious Resources Centre and the Board of Deputies.
