Ravensbrück Memorial Museum
Sound in the Silence – Raise your Voice
14. June - 20. June 2026 – all day
In June 2026, the international and interdisciplinary remembrance and performance project “Sound in the Silence – Raise Your Voice” returns to the Ravensbrück Memorial Museum. In this edition, students from Freie Universität Berlin and Coburg University of Applied Sciences and Arts will develop a performance together with artists from various disciplines.
Participants are encouraged to find their own voice and perspective on the history of National Socialism, while also reflecting on the potential of artistic and cultural education in the field of historical learning. The starting point is the life story of Ravensbrück survivor Emmie Arbel, as documented by Barbara Yelin in the graphic novel “Emmie Arbel. The Colour of Memory.”
The public final performances will take place on 19 June at 5 pm and on 20 June at 11 am at the Ravensbrück Memorial Site. Afterwards, all audience members are warmly invited to a brief discussion with the performers.
The project “Sound in the Silence – Raise Your Voice” is funded by the Foundation Remembrance, Responsibility and Future (EVZ) and the Federal Government Commissioner for Culture and the Media (BKM) as part of the programme “JUGEND erinnert vor Ort & engagiert.”
