How do I sign up to attend KlezKamp?

Catalogs, including a registration form, for KlezKamp are mailed several months before Kamp starts. The registration form may also be downloaded (in PDF format). A deposit (check, money order or credit card) must accompany completed registration forms. No registrations will be accepted without a deposit. This year, we are also offering payment with Mastercard or Visa. We can now accept faxed registrations if payment is by credit card. Fax number is 212-532-8238.

Registration deadline is November 15. Registrations received after that date will be accepted on a space available basis. All balances should be paid by December 5.

After your registration form is processed, you will receive a confirmation letter with directions to the hotel and other details.

I live nearby. Can I attend KlezKamp, but not stay at the hotel?

Yes! We now offer a commuter rate for those who want to attend Kamp, but not stay at the hotel. This includes all classes, meals, and evening events.

The commuter rates sounds great, but I really don't need to eat breakfast at the hotel. Can I get a discount?

The commuter rate is the same no matter how many of the program options you choose to take advantage of. And remember, getting to the hotel in time to join some of your colleagues for breakfast can actually enhance your experience of the Kamp community.

Can I show up at the hotel and register for KlezKamp then?

Only those who have registered in advance for KlezKamp may attend any class or activity, with the exception of the public evening concerts.

I am unable to attend KlezKamp for the whole week. Can I come by for a day?

KlezKamp is a carefully planned educational event rather than a festival of Yiddish culture. There isn’t much to be gained from joining us (popping by) for a day, and having people coming and going can be quite disruptive to classes. Therefore, we do not permit part-time registrations. You can, however, get a taste of the community be coming to one or more of the evening programs that are open to the public. See the catalog for details about what is happening this year, and when.

I have friends who would like to check out KlezKamp. Can they come by for a few hours?

As noted above, we have several events which are opened to the public. Other than that we allow no visitors or guests. Period.

The tuition costs are kind of high for my means. Is there any way to make Kamp more affordable?

There are a limited number of work-study positions available. Applications for work-study positions should accompany a completed registration form and deposit. Please include a letter indicating your interest and what skills you can offer. Work-study positions are available in the KlezKids program, the Epes Center and technical (sound and recording) assistance. No work study applications will be considered unless accompanied by a completed registration form and deposit.
