See what’s going on in the new Yiddish community calendar

The calendar includes both in-person and online events, both in English and in Yiddish

Looking for an event that’s inspiring, informative or just plain fun? Check out our fast-growing Yiddish Community Calendar to see what’s going on in Yiddishland.

The calendar includes both in-person and online events, both Yiddish and English. You’ll see lectures, concerts, chat groups, exhibit tours and dramatic readings.

This Sunday, May 7, for example, there’s going to be a lecture about the origins of Ashkenazi family names and a meeting of a Zoom Yiddish chat group hosted by the Paris Yiddish Center.

Are you one of our 2%?

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.

Don’t just read the Forward — invest in it. Support our work today!

— Rachel Fishman Feddersen, Forward Publisher & CEO
