History of Printing of Tanya
In 1796 the Alter Rebbe , founder of Chabad Chassidism published the "Tanya" , which was to become known as the 'written Torah of Chassidism', revolutionizing Jewish thought forever.
In 1984, the Lubavitcher Rebbe began a campaign to print an edition of Tanya in every city and community in the world ! His directive was based on a teaching of the Baal Shem Tov that Moshiach would come when "the wellsprings" of Chassidic teachings would spread worldwide. Printing the Tanya in every location would transform that place into a source and bastion of these beautiful teachings.

The Rebbe's emissaries dispersed throughout the globe took up the Rebbe's call and traveled from town to town in their region, printing Tanyas in every stop along the way. Since the Rebbe's call, more than 7,000 editions of Tanya have been published throughout the world , from large bustling cities to small rural communities. Please note the printing of our Tanya is a Hebrew edition.
The printing of our Tanya will be in honor of the 19th of Kislev, the day that is celebrated as the "New Year of Chassidism". We will have a Farbrengen and dinner open to the community on Monday, December 16 7:30pm at Chabad - 655 W. Irving Park rd. Free parking across the st.
