On the occasion of the International Day of Remembrance for the Victims of the Genocide of Roma and Sinti, we kindly invite you to the memorial event The Night the Violins Fell Silent.
On behalf of the event organizers, visitors will be addressed by the coordinator of cultural programs of the Maribor Synagogue, Marjetka Bedrač, and the president of the Association EPEKA, a social enterprise, Štefan Simončič.
As part of the event, we will present the international project Roma Soul Food, which is dedicated to collecting and preserving the oral history of Roma communities and their culinary and cultural practices in Slovenia, Serbia and Greece.
A special moment of the event will be a musical performance by Roma women and girls, who will sing traditional Roma songs related to memory, identity and intergenerational transmission of cultural heritage.
The event is being prepared in collaboration with the Maribor Synagogue and Loli Luludi.
You are cordially invited!
