Liz and Jeffrey are heading to Canada to give talks and workshops as part of a weekend of Yiddish culture. Taking place in the heart of Montreal, the Yiddish Culture Jam is an urban winter companion to KlezKanada’s internationally-acclaimed Summer Retreat. The weekend will feature a curated program of workshops, talks, concerts, and social events led by guest faculty, as well as a series of participant-led workshops that highlight the talent and knowledge of the Yiddish cultural community.
The program will showcase and explore the tremendously rich outpouring of new Yiddish art and performance being created today and offer creative skill-building workshops. Alongside this focus on new work, the program will highlight the rich tradition of cultural exchange in Yiddish culture by connecting with our neighbouring cultural communities and cultivating spaces for collaboration.
