Looking for a wonderful, musical, joyful, justice-fueled activity to do with your family or community on Mother's Day?

Join us for the annual Boston Workers Circle Fundraiser A Besere Velt Yiddish Chorus concert on Mother's Day, Sunday, May 10 at 2:00 PM ET at the Armory in Somerville.

Boston Workers Circle's Chorus, led by Music Director David Derek, will be joined by Golden Thread Ensemble to present Sing Out, Fight Back! Yiddish Songs of Social Change, a concert that is sure to inspire and sustain our ongoing work for collective freedom. "A Besere Velt" is a vibrant, 80-member, intergenerational Yiddish chorus that weaves the heartache and irrepressible idealism of Yiddish music into a vision of justice and humanity for the 21st century. Golden Thread Ensemble is a pioneering new chamber-klezmer group led by Craig Judelman, featuring The Klezmatics’ frontman Lorin Sklamberg, and a virtuosic string quintet made up of leading klezmer musicians.

Purchase tickets here to join us, either in-person or virtually, to celebrate radical Yiddishkayt! Delicious refreshments and drinks will be available for purchase at the Armory.
