Summer PA Dutch Classes Begin

Berks History Center (BHC) is excited to bring back its popular new PA Dutch Classes teaching participants the language and culture of the Pennsylvania Dutch. The Summer 2023 semester begins Tuesday, May 30, and will run for eight weeks.

BHC is offering two PA Dutch course levels with an in­person or online option. Online classes are held via Zoom and in­person classes take place at the BHC Historical Society Museum, 940 Centre Avenue, Reading.

developed from the immigration of German speakers to colonial Pennsylvania. While speaking PA Dutch is not as widespread as it once was, the tradition is still upheld by both native and non­native speakers.

Enrolling in a PA Dutch class at the BHC offers a fun opportunity to celebrate and preserve this rich cultural heritage.

BHC began offering inperson beginner PA Dutch Classes in the fall of 2022.

During their Winter 2023 semester, BHC broadened its offerings to include online classes. Due to increasing demand, the organization has expanded its program yet again for the Summer 2023 semester to include both beginner and intermediate courses and introduce participants to two new class instructors.
