Week XNUMX school holiday

Add color to traditions

Whoops! May-Bell's art has lost its colors! During the fall holidays, all children, families and creative souls can stop by the museum shop and color one of her works. When you're done, you'll of course get your colored version to take home in a passe-partout frame, ready to hang. Everyone can join in and it only costs a regular admission ticket.

Every day during the autumn holidays 11 am–15 pm.

Culture Night 2026

Libeskind in light

Dutch light artist Arthur van der Zaag will color the museum and let the architecture emerge as a story in itself in a large light installation. The installation is called “WATER WATER SAVE ME” and, together with a soundscape of waves and fishing boats, will fill the space with references to the escape of Danish Jews across the strait to Sweden in October 1943.

Come by the Danish Jewish Museum on Culture Night on October 9, 2026 from 18.00:00.00 PM to midnight.

Taste the story

Danish Jewish history is also a history of beer. In 1873, Philip W. Heyman founded Tuborgs Fabrikker. We have stuffed the history on the label and bottle of our two beers. They are organic – and of course they are kosher.
