Woche der Religionen - Lunch&Learn

Building bridges between cultures and deepening respect for people of other faiths is the goal of the Week of Religions, which will take place throughout Switzerland from 7 to 15 November 2026. In Graubünden, the activities are organised in cooperation with the Graubünden Forum of Religions and the Catholic Women's Federation. The Week of Religions will take place in Graubünden in 2026 under the motto Young Talent.

On Monday in the Week of Religions, there will be a Lunch&Learn at the Kulturpunkt. At lunch, participants will be given an insight into an area of the theme week by an expert. This year, Ofer Becker is showing a documentary about Solomon's Temple.

The Zurich-based management consultant Ofer Becker invested around 450 unpaid hours in an unusual project: For the 40th anniversary of his Jewish community Minyan Brunau, he did not want to organize an ordinary gala as a board member, but an experience that would touch the guests emotionally. Inspired by a high-tech picture show in Zurich's Maag Hall, the idea arose to show a large-format video on an 18-metre-long wall – about the origins of Jewish prayer rooms in Solomon's Temple. With an expert, Ofer Becker evaluated around 250 historical sources and developed his own, true-to-source 3D model including film with a programmer. A project that cost many nights and weekends. The 62-year-old father of three grown-up children is known for elaborate projects: He also designed his son's bar mitzvah with a year of preparation and a complete Swissair setting including check-in and flight simulator. He will show his film at Lunch&Learn on Monday, November 9 at the Kulturpunkt. Afterwards, Ofer Becker talks about his passion and what he is planning next: an immersive all-round projection show.
