Yad Ben-Zvi’s Culture department runs courses, lectures and tours unfolding the history of the land and its people, the culture and landscape, and the story of various Jewish communities and figures around the world. We hold Zoom, class and field meetings with leading guides and scholars, all experts in their respective fields. Our series may focus on themes such as communities and leaders, Jewish life and culture, archaeology and geography, history and religion(s), heritage and landscape. In addition, we hold open scholarly evenings in various fields, in cooperation with leading academic and national bodies. Many of those are held in our new auditorium or in the historical President’s Cabin (a National Heritage site).
