Indiana Jewish Festival

Join the community for this year's Indiana Jewish Festival, a celebration open to people of all backgrounds and beliefs. Held on the grounds of Carmel City Hall, this free event welcomes families to experience Jewish culture through food, music, activities, and local artisan goods. While admission costs nothing, you'll need to sign up in advance and let organizers know your group size. Expect a full day of entertainment and enjoyment. Kids can bounce in the bounce house, watch a balloon artist at work, play at the bubble table, and try out various games. For music lovers, artist Ari Lesser will perform Jewish rap and reggae, including freestyle performances based on audience suggestions. Food vendors will be on-site selling meals and snacks, including Israeli cuisine from Nish-Nosh On Wheels and other offerings. A vendor market features handmade and locally-made items available for purchase. The festival welcomes donations to support the event. This is a wonderful opportunity for families to learn about and celebrate Jewish heritage and community.
