Check out the photos from the opening of exhibition presenting the 19th and 20th century history of Jews in Koźmin Wielkopolski, curated by a member of Forum’s Network Paweł Bajerlein and hosted by the local public library. The exhibition, a part of broader “Greetings from Koźmin!” project conducted by Paweł, tells the multi-faceted story of Koźmin’s Jewish families and their everyday life through archival photographs, postcards, documents, and press clippings. It also includes pieces of additional information provided by descendants of Koźmin’s Jews from all over the world, whom Paweł invited to cooperate in his project.
