The seminar on Judaism within an informal educational program took place in the city of Almaty.

More than fifty people – youth of the Jewish community took part in this seminar. All of them came to listen to lectures about Pesah, about an era of the First Temple, Tanakh structure, the bible period of the Jewish history and the Jewish values. The leader of the seminar Alexander Abramovich not only gives interesting new information but also makes conversation and discussion. All participants of a seminar took active part, asking questions and even getting into dispute with the lecturer.

The youngest part of the Jewish community didn't stand aside too. Within a week children visiting camp at the communal center "Rimon" prepared Pesah scenario. This show turned out not only original, fancy-dress and issued by verses and music, but also interactive: the audience was involved in the events on "scene" also. The side between "actors" and "hall" was dim, and everyone felt a part of the action.

The seminars which are carried out by Alexander Abramovich, became good tradition of the Jewish community of the Republic of Kazakhstan. Seminars are regularly carried out in many cities of Kazakhstan, and the number of people visit these seminars constantly grows. Certainly, the main target audience is youth, those who are not indifferent to the history and culture Jews who aspire to return to the Jewish roots and more deeply to comprehend the Jewish wisdom. Also it should be noted that these seminars reach the goal.
