The Great Nosh

A food festival with a point of view, Jewish Food Society's The Great Nosh returns to Governors Island on June 21, turning a summer picnic into a full-on culinary happening. Presented by the Jewish Food Society, the day mixes buzzy chef collabs (Katz’s with Santo Taco, Russ & Daughters with Bonnie’s), live demos, crafts and music. Plus, The Grandmas Tent features intergenerational chefs working together to cook and share personal stories, in case you're hungry for connection. Bring your appetite and leave with a tote bag, bespoke picnic blanket and renewed sense of community worth the ferry ride.
