Yiddish Civilization Lecture Series

The 2024 Yiddish Civilization Lecture Series will be conducted digitally via Zoom. Below are the listings for past years; please check back for more information about the 2024 series.

This lecture series introduces audiences to some of the breadth and depth of Yiddish civilization in Eastern Europe, New York, and around the world.

Growing out of YIVO's Uriel Weinreich Yiddish Summer Program, a 6-week program which offers Yiddish language classes from beginner to advanced levels and a wide variety of cultural and enrichment activities, the lectures are part of the Summer Program curriculum, but are also open to a broad public. Tuesday lectures will be delivered in English and Thursday lectures in Yiddish.
