Time Out says

The tenth annual Greek Jewish Festival is back on the Lower East Side this spring. The open-air festival will celebrate the unique Romaniote and Sephardic heritage of the Jews of Greece with a feast of authentic kosher Greek foods and homemade Greek pastries, along with Sephardic cooking demonstrations so you can learn how to make the treats at home yourself. 

Alongside the great food, attendees can enjoy traditional Greek dancing and live Greek and Sephardic music, an outdoor marketplace full of vendors, arts and educational activities for kids and more. Artists performing include: the Elias Ladino Ensemble, the Hellenic Dancers of New Jersey, the Noga Group featuring Avram Pengas, Ta Pedia Tis Polis and Baklava Express, among others 

It’s free to attend the festival, which runs from noon to 6pm on Sunday, May 11 at 280 Broome Street between Allen and Eldridge Streets.
