Nile by Y. L. Peretz
Jews Praying in the Synagogue on Yom Kippur, by Maurycy Gottlieb, 1878.

A scene from a synagogue in the old country, with glimpses inside the fervent prayers of the individuals under the tallises, this story was written by Y. L. Peretz and reworked for performances by the humorist Der Tunkeler (Yoysef Tunkel) and was a favorite piece in the repertoire of Joseph Buloff.

we are most grateful to those who have supported our work at this difficult time with contributions both financial and practical.

We have some very special plans for a truly unique online event this December, announcement to follow the yontoyvim. But we'll need considerable help in order to do it.
