 Speak Yiddish!
Why not? Far vos nisht?
Every Monday at 2 pm
Hadasa is a hit! Thanks to your attendance, her Conversational Yiddish group is thriving. We've gotten people's Yiddish speaking muscles flexing with world-
recognized Yiddish teacher, scholar, translator and raconteuse Hadasa Cytrynowicz. Originally from Lodz, and later a long-time resident of Brazil, Hadasa brings a wealth of experience and stories, songs, proverbs and sayings, poetry and interesting topics for discussion to her group. Each session is an hour and 15 minutes.
Admission is by voluntary donation.
Keep your Yiddish kite flying by attending this group! All levels of Yiddish are welcome. Kumt arayn! Far vos nisht? |

Anti-War March
8 years since "Shock and Awe" began!
Although this is not an officially endorsed Arbeter Ring (Workmen's Circle) march due to the anti-Jewish/anti-Israel stance of one of the event's sponsors, many other sponsors are friends of our organization. Some of our members have requested information on this rally in order to march in solidarity with our pro-peace comrades-in-arms.
Date: Saturday, March 19
Time: Noon
Place: Hollywood and Vine
