Celebration of Judeo-Spanish 2019

We are thrilled to announce the third Celebration of Judeo-Spanish in New York on Sunday, May 5, 2019! Judeo-Spanish, also know as Ladino, Judezmo, and Haketia, is the native language of Jewish communities from Greece, Turkey, the Balkans, and parts of North Africa. To help preserve this beautiful language for the next generation, the Sephardic Brotherhood has partnered with the Department of Judaic Studies at Binghamton University to create a day devoted to learning Judeo-Spanish and celebrating our common Sephardic culture. The Celebration is open to individuals of all ages and backgrounds and will include lectures from prominent Judeo-Spanish academics, Ladino Language Workshops, Sephardic community leaders, a Sephardic Community Panel, and our special Ora de Alegria (social hour).
