| | | Description | Ladino Day 2019 will survey the life cycle customs and traditions unique to Sepharadim from the Ottoman Empire. From birth to coming of age, weddings to funerals, the program will highlight a selection of major life events and explore shifts in Sephardic culture and the Ladino language through textual and material artifacts, oral histories, and photographs. Performances of Ladino songs by the Ladineros, Seattle’s long time Ladino conversation group, a Ladino reading by Anna Jacoby (Northwest Yeshiva High School ’22) and a multimedia presentation by Professor Devin Naar, will bring memories of these Sephardic traditions to life. |
