Aki Yerushalayim published Devin E. Naar’s first Ladino short story, "Dos Ijikos i sus Nono" (‘Two Children and their Grandfather’), which imagines a scene with two boys strolling along the shore with their grandfather, discovering the promises and costs of immigration, the preservation of one’s culture across generations, and what it means to speak to those closest to you in a language not your own.
The UW Sephardic Studies Program's Ladino Day 2023 features author Elizabeth Graver, who will discuss her novel Kantika — a multigenerational saga inspired by her Sephardic grandmother — with Isaac Alhadeff Professor of Sephardic Studies and SSP Chair Devin E. Naar.
Canadian Jewish author and artist Linda Dayan Frimer presents on her new book, "Luminous: An artist's story as a guide to radical creativity". Frimer's art focuses on the dignity and preservation of both culture and nature.
