Roma Capitale's program for Remembrance Day 2024 includes exhibitions, meetings, book presentations, guided tours, events for schools, concerts, shows and film screenings, which take place in different spaces of the city, in collaboration with city institutions and with national and Roman associations. There are around 60 events to remember the catastrophe of the Shoah, with the deportation and extermination of millions of Jews, and not to forget the persecution, imprisonment and death in Nazi concentration camps of Sinti and Roma, homosexuals, Jehovah's Witnesses, anti-fascist and anti-Nazi military and political opponents from all over Europe.
At the centre of this edition is the exhibition The words of hate. The Roman Jews sold to the Nazis hosted at the Casina dei Vallati, home of the Shoah Museum Foundation. On display are original documents and an immersive visual and sound installation; the exhibition focuses in particular on the role of informers during the Nazi-fascist occupation of Rome, a very painful chapter for the Jewish community. The project, promoted by the Jewish Community of Rome and the Shoah Museum Foundation, curated by Amedeo Osti Guerrazzi and Giorgia Calò, is co-organised by the Jewish Culture Centre, the Historical Archive of the Jewish Community of Rome and the Foundation for the Jewish Museum of Rome, with the support of Roma Capitale, Department of Culture, Department for Cultural Activities. The exhibition, with free entry, can be visited from Sunday to Thursday from 10am to 5pm and on Friday from 10am to 1pm; Saturdays and Jewish holidays, closed. Info on https://culturaebraica.roma.it.
Also worth mentioning is the exhibition The Submerged. Rome,16 October 1943 at the Capitoline Museums, Palazzo dei Conservatori, edited by Yael Calò and Lia Toaff. This exhibition project, inaugurated on the occasion of the 80th anniversary of the roundup of the Jews from Rome, tells through photos, documents and objects of daily life, the stories and protagonists of the deportation, all those men, women and children to whom we try to restore an identity and recognition through memory. The exhibition, promoted by Roma Capitale, Department of Culture, Capitoline Superintendence of Cultural Heritage, Jewish Community of Rome and Jewish Museum Foundation of Rome, can be visited until 18 February every day from 9.30am to 7.30pm (entry up to one hour before of the closure).
