Come tour YIVO’s brand new Learning and Media Center!YIVO is opening the doors to its new YLMC, a publicly accessible space for visitors to come and explore Jewish history and the YIVO Collections.
The space features a striking welcome vestibule highlighting photographs and objects from YIVO’s storied history, artifact displays from the YIVO Archives and Library, interactive activities like a poster-making station and a touch-screen map featuring hundreds of photos of Jewish life in Eastern European towns and cities, an intimate open-stacks library with Yiddish and English books, multimedia stations for listening to sound recordings and watching videos from the YIVO Collections, and a classroom for lessons that utilize rare archival materials.
During this open house, educators and their families are invited to visit YIVO's Learning and Media Center and take a guided tour of the new space with YLMC Educator Susannah Trubman. If you are a member of the public interested in attending, please register for the August 24, 2025 open house.
Space is limited! Sign up today to be among the first to see the YLMC.
