Fioretta April 28, 2024 at the Art Cinema Despite the sunny Sunday, many people came to the Art Cinema in the late afternoon for the screening of Fioretta. The attraction was the promised personal presence of its protagonist - Randy Schoenberg. He took his almost grown-up son with him on the trip to Europe, who also attended the filming of the movie. The American director [...]

Apart from the Mehrin book, which summarizes what has happened in the four years of preparation, we can safely say that the first title published in the Mehrin series is David Placzek's book entitled Memoirs.

SAKO helps

There are assignments that one fulfils with special pleasure, and one of them is thanking SAKO This spring we opened the "temporary" museum Malý Mehrin at 14 Vídeňská Street, when we managed to restore the ground floor at a cost of nearly 800,000 CZK. This year we have an even more difficult task ahead of us: to make the basement [...]

Someone has offered us some interesting object or correspondence from ancestors that they think belongs in a museum like ours. Since the opening of the Little Mehrin, however, the number of such donations has clearly begun to increase. The most valuable one so far was brought to us personally from the United States by Ann Altman, a prominent scholar and direct descendant of several [...]
VISIT OF THE MINISTER OF CULTURE

On the first of April the Minister of Culture of the Czech Republic Martin Baxa visited our "temporary" museum. He was personally guided through the exhibition Carriers of Memory by its author Martin Šmok. The Minister came with his wife and stayed with us for over an hour, so we had enough time to discuss a number of questions concerning the future of the whole project and its support from the Ministry, [...]
BOOK OF MEHRIN

Since the beginning of the project, we have published several brochures highlighting what has happened in the project. We were about to do this again in the summer of 2022 when we realised that the project had gradually gathered such a pace that the usual 16 pages would not be enough. And so, in a rather sumptuously produced publication of one hundred and thirty pages, we have mapped out in detail everything that [...]
LITTLE MEHRIN
![](https://mehrin.cz/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/2023-02-28-79360-s7-1024x683.jpg)
The project to build the Moravian Jewish Museum in the form we dreamed of four years ago is progressing well. We have a great design for a new building by the Japanese architect Kengo Kuma, but we don't want to wait until the new building is built and welcomes its first visitors. That's why we opened the "temporary" museum Malý Mehrin at 14 Vídeňská Street on 28 February.
THE FOUNDATION HAS CHANGED ITS NAME
![](https://mehrin.cz/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/nadacni-fond-mehrin-1024x491.jpg)
It's just a formality, but quite important. At its meeting on 6 March, the Board of Trustees decided to get rid of the Foundation's overly complicated name, which, moreover, did not quite correspond to our intention and stated goal. Therefore, a new name was registered: the Mehrin Endowment Fund. The identification number of the Foundation Fund remains the same and guarantees the legal continuity of all [...]
