The Book Center's all-new museum exhibition opened in November 2010 with 12,000 square feet of fascinating displays about Yiddish language and literature; Yiddish printing and publishing; the American Jewish home; and the story of S. An-sky's 1912-1914 Jewish Ethnographic Expedition and its influences. Drawn largely from the Center's collection of one million Yiddish books and supplemented by rare archival photographs and artifacts, A velt mit veltelekh conveys the diversity and depth of Yiddish culture ­ past, present, and future, and will enable a largely non-Yiddish-speaking public to "open up the books" and explore the treasures within.

A velt mit veltelekh: The Worlds of Yiddish Culture is made possible in part by a gift of George & Mildred Weissman

The exhibits within A velt mit veltelekh: The Worlds of Yiddish Culture are made possible by support from:

- The David Berg Foundation (Unquiet Pages - Yiddish Literature Exhibit)

- Mitzi & Warren Eisenberg (Sholem-bayes: Reflections on the American Jewish Home)

- Joan & Elihu Schepps and family, and J. Lew Schepps and family (The Yiddish Print Shop)

- Nancy & Stephen (Skippy) Weinstein (Kinder-vinkl, with additional support by Leo & Eda Rabinovitz, and by Chana & Yechiel Schachner)
