Who We Are
Yiddishland California in La Jolla is the physical space of a non-profit organization called the Yiddish Arts and Academics Association of North America (YAAANA). Our mission is to expand awareness of the beauty and joy of Yiddishkeit and to preserve and advance Yiddish language and culture within the US and worldwide. Our events and offerings include concerts, performances, language and art classes, lectures, exhibits, and much more. We educate and entertain while offering both in-person and online participation for those who are local or far-flung. People of all ages and backgrounds are invited to attend our programs.
Yiddishland California tours are by appointment. Feel free to book a tour by emailing info@yiddishland.ca or by calling 619-719-1776.
If you see an activity inside and the lights on, please come in to say hello and wander around our exhibit!
