SUMMARY:International Ladino Day
DESCRIPTION:Join the American Sephardi Federation for a festival of stories and songs celebrating Ladino\, the remarkable language also known as Judeo-Spanish. \nDr. Jane Mushabac will perform excerpts from her highly acclaimed 2016 novel\, rich with Ladino expressions: His Hundred Years\, A Tale. Also hear wonderful singer/accordionist Jane Carver; renowned Sephardic thought leaders\, Rabbi Marc Angel and Rabbi Nissim Elnecavé; and a musical finale by the illustrious Trio Sefardi\, with Howard Bass\, Tina Chancey\, and Susan Gaeta\, who has toured with the legendary Flory Jagoda. \nIn 2013 Yitzhak Navon\, Israel’s 5th President and Director of the National Authority for Ladino\, endorsed the idea of International Ladino Day. Sincethen\, celebrations have been held in Jerusalem\, Seattle\, Istanbul\, Madrid\, Dallas\, and Forest Hills. This will be the first festival in Manhattan! \nLadino is a bridge between cultures—it’s a Spanish language that includes words in Hebrew\, Turkish\, Arabic\, and more. It was the mother tongue of Jews in the Ottoman Empire for 500 years. In the early 20th century\, about half a million people spoke Ladino. Now there are 50\,000-100\,000 speakers. The international resurgence of interest in Ladino and its culture is seen in distinguished university programs\, publications\, and events of many kinds. \nCo-presented by The American Jewish Historical Society and American Sephardi Federation \nCenter for Jewish History\n15 W 16th St\nNew York\, NY 10011 \nLight refreshments will be served. \nPlease click here (https://www.brownpapertickets.com/event/3132932) or call (800) 838-3006 to purchase tickets.
