TAKING PLACE ONLINE

JUNE 29 – AUGUST 7, 2020

DON’T MISS THE APPLICATION DEADLINE: MAY 29

Spend six-to-nine weeks immersed in Yiddish and discover 1,000 years of Jewish history.

Delve into the riches of the Yiddish language and Eastern European Jewish culture through language classes, seminars, theater workshops, and other activities. The program will run in full, with a number of innovations and additions to meet the needs of the virtual classroom. Teaching from New York, Montreal, and Israel, our world-class faculty will join students across the globe as an international community in our own digital Yiddishland.
