As a joint venture of the NPO Room 28 and Edition Room 28, the children's book telling the plot of the opera Brundibár will be published in Ukrainian language. The project could be realized with support of the Foreign Office of Germany. Many thanks! 

The book was translated into Ukrainian by Galina Palaguta. She has already translated the libretto of the children's opera Brundibár into the Ukrainian language. Galina is from Kharkiv and fled to Warsaw after Russia attacked the Ukraine. Galina was guest of Room 28 in the beginning of this year. More on: https://www.edition-room28.de/brundibar-ukrainisch

Cooperation with the Ilse Löwenstein Schule in Hamburg

By initiative of theater-educator and director Karsten Bohn wer are presently prepearing a joint venture with the Ilse-Löwenstein School in Hamburg Starting from May various activities will be realized: Workshop and introduction into the story of "The Girls of Room 28 and Brundibár", a reading from the book, the Room 28 exhibition. Highlight are performances of Brundibár in July.

The Room 28 Educational Project is planned to be the central realm of activities of the NPO Room 28. However: the association must be put in a position to take over the management and development of this educational project and everything that goes with it, especially the maintanance and development of the exhibition, communication with schools and with people active in the field of art and culture interested in our Offers.  

This means to establish an active team and secure financial support for the organization on a stable basis. So far all the work was done by me alone, including creating and writingh the connected websites. - This is why it is necessary that the process of transformation can be realized in 2023-2024. 

The logo leads to the association's website. It is only in German.
