Seattle Yiddish Fest is back March 6-10 - now with MORE Yiddish culture!

We’re thrilled to bring the whole spectrum of Seattle’s Jewish community together in these difficult times to celebrate Yiddish (aka Ashkenazi) culture. This year we offer 4 simultaneous workshops all weekend plus a full program of lectures, concerts, jams, Seattle’s first Yiddish Visual Art show, a Shabes Tish and more. You don’t have to sing play or dance to participate, but it could lead to dancing…
