2026 Study Tour of Lithuania & Poland
Trip starts June 22
Reclaim your heritage as you examine the life that was lived in these lands. View the remarkable history of old Warsaw, Kraków, Vilnius, and Białowieża. Noted historian Dr. Samuel Kassow will illustrate the fascinating ways Jewish culture helped shape these societies. You will visit places where the greatest tragedy in our history occurred. Along the way, you will meet the dynamic young Jews rebuilding communities on ancestral grounds and take in the sights and sounds of the hugely popular Jewish Culture Festival, the largest Jewish festival in Europe.
The tour will be chaired by Irene Pletka, vice-chair of the YIVO Board of Directors.
