An exciting addition this year is the music stage, which will host a thrilling competition among Jewish a cappella groups. For those who enjoy instrumental music paired with vocals, performances by Chicago’s own Maxwell Street Klezmer Band, Kol Sasson, Shakshuka, along with artists David Broza and Jeff Klepper, are scheduled.

There will also be an extensive art bazaar, featuring artists from Chicago, the U.S., Israel and across the world.

Food enthusiasts will not be disappointed, as a kosher food court will present a diverse selection from local kosher dining options. Offerings will include pizza, falafel, shish kabob, ice cream, and more.

The all-day festival, the largest Jewish cultural event in Chicago, is produced by the Jewish POCET, an all volunteer, non-profit organization dedicated to creating quality events for the Chicago Jewish community.

A $5 donation is requested for entry; children and seniors enter for free.

For more information, please call 847-933-3000 or visit at www.jewishfestival.org.
