All are invited to experience the magic of Polina Shepherd for a hybrid Yiddish song workshop followed by a concert on Sunday, April 5, 2026 from 3:00 – 5:00pm at the BWC building and on Zoom.

Polina Shepherd is a world-class performer, composer, educator, and cultural activist originally from Siberia, now living in Brighton UK. Her singing cuts a sound deeply rooted in east European Jewish and Russian folk. Growing up in Tatarstan also placed her close to Islamic ornamentation and timbre, which can be heard in her unique vocal style.

All are welcome, regardless of singing ability or knowledge of Yiddish.

Cost: $20 or pay what you can. Please use the Pass-the-Hat donation form to pay for tickets, and choose Yiddish Committee/Events when prompted on the form.

This event is cosponsored by A Besere Velt and the Yiddish Committee.
