Yiddish Songs of the Bund and Beyond

City Lore presents an evening of Yiddish songs rooted in labor solidarity and resistance, featuring Ira Khonen Temple, Eléonore Weill, Beila Ungar, and Kirsten Lamb — with special guest Eve Sicular.

Songs of the Bund and the broader Yiddish musical tradition powered social movements throughout the 20th century. Once unlocked, they feel made for our times. Come ready to sing along.

Presented in conjunction with Zoe Beloff's installation Life Forgotten, on view at City Lore Gallery through September 13 — a film and artwork series imagining the encounter between early cinema and young women labor activists of the Lower East Side in the early 20th century. Free admission.
