Noshfest, one of the largest Jewish food and culture festivals in the region, is celebrating 10 years of food and fun, and you’re invited to the party!
Temple Kol Emeth will host its annual Noshfest event on Sunday, September 4, and Monday, September 5, from 11am to 5pm daily in the temple’s parking lot at 1415 Old Canton Road in Marietta.
“There is something for everyone at Noshfest,” said Sarah Jacoby Thalheimer, who is co-chairing the event with her sister Dale Jacoby, both second generation members at TKE. There will be live music, arts and craft vendors, and a “Kids Zone,” including a petting zoo and face painting. And, by popular demand, this year’s anniversary event will feature more home-cooked traditional Jewish foods. Local Jewish family chefs will prepare all your favorite foods from recipes that have been passed down l’dor v’dor, from generation to generation.
“Noshfest isn’t just for our Jewish community members,” Jacoby added. “We welcome all our diverse neighbors from across the region to join us!” In addition to food and fun, festival goers will have the opportunity to learn about the Jewish culture through interactive exhibits and tour the Temple Kol Emeth sanctuary with a member of the ritual committee.
There is no cost to attend Noshfest, but festival organizers ask everyone attending to do a “Mitzvah” or “good deed” and bring two canned goods per family instead of a paid admission. All food collected on admission will go to MUST Ministries’ efforts to feed the hungry in Atlanta. For more information, visit www.noshfest.com.
