Family Sing-Along Celebrating Jewish American Heritage Month

Sunday, May 17 at 2pm, White Plains Library

Pack your (imaginary) bags and join musical educator Rebecca Schoffer for a joyful, interactive sing-along celebrating Jewish American Heritage Month! Travel through time with songs that journeyed across oceans and generations, from traditional Yiddish folk to American classics, beloved children’s music, and pop hits by Jewish American songwriters. Families will clap, move, and sing together, as we explore how music tells stories of home, hope, and the Jewish American experience.

Recommended for families with children ages 0-8.
