This exciting festival takes place on the JCC grounds from 12-6PM on Sunday, June 11, 2023. Entertainment features Paul Shapiro’s Ribs & Brisket Revue performing songs from The Fabulous Mrs. Maisel! This engaging band wowed them at “Yidstock!” last summer and we are thrilled to welcome them and their Afro-Jewish style to the Mohawk Valley.

We are also fortunate to welcome Beejhy Barhany, owner of Tsion Café in Harlem to give us a demonstration of Ethiopian Jewish Cooking.
You’ll be able to wander the festival with an adult beverage from our “He’Brew Garden” or try an authentic egg cream. A range of Jewish favorites…from bagels to kosher dills…will tickle your taste buds. You’ll even be able to make a virtual visit to the Western Wall and wrap tefillin.
