Virtual Ashkenaz goes live

[Ari Davidow <ari...>]

(A copy of this message has also been posted to the following newsgroups:
shamash.yiddishnet, alt.music.jewish,soc.culture.jewish)

The Ashkenaz Festival of New Yiddish Culture will take place in 
Toronto starting later this month (Aug. 25th - Sept. 1;
http://www.ashkenaz.org).

In the meantime, what is new Yiddish Culture? For that matter, what
is old Yiddish Culture? Even more immediately, who are these musicians
and artists and performers? For these discussions, and anything to do 
with this new virtual land of Ashkenaz, Yiddish, or the many strands of 
Jewish (not just Ashkenazic Jewish) culture, thought, and literature, you 
are invited to stop by a new virtual community,

   Virtual Ashkenaz

and also to experience a different way of online community, using the
Motet web-conferencing software.

The site is most easily accessed at
   http://www.ashkenaz.org/virtual.html
