On December 14, a renowned Jewish educational institute in Sweden will be hosting an online celebration of Yiddish language and culture. The event will be conducted in English.
Paideia – the European Institute for Jewish Studies in Sweden has coordinated a series of lectures about Yiddish film, theater, literature and music, given by experts in the fields who are all Paideia alumni.
Viewers will also hear excerpts of Yiddish poetry and songs.

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
