Wallis Annenberg Helix Fellowship Staff
We’re a small organization devoted to a great cause!
We explore Yiddishkayt as a vital, unrestrained, and critical worldview, which embraces a concern for all humanity and draws on Jewish culture’s legacy to inspire us all to help build a more inclusive and just society.
Cultural Preservation
We bring the European Jewish past to life by recovering historical treasures to put into a meaningful context and connect them to our contemporary world.
Digital & Multimedia
Every day we’re sharing the artifacts of Jewish life online. With our images, poems, videos, and songs, we entertain, educate, and engage culture lovers the world over.
Travel & Immersion
We hasve been transforming the way Jewish history is taught and perceived by directly engaging the landscapes of Jewish life from Boyle Heights to Brooklyn to Bobruysk.
Live Arts
Our unique spin on creative arts programming has set Yiddishkayt apart from other Jewish cultural organizations with our emphasis on cross-cultural programs.
