DESCRIPTION:Temple Beth El – Jewish Cultural Festival \nSunday June 22, 2014 from 11 
 am – 6 pm\n\nSchmooze and Brews \n\nAptos, CA.  Everyone is invited! 
 Temple Beth El brings to its campus the second annual Jewish Cultural 
 Festival, Sunday, June 22nd from 11:00 am - 6:00 pm.  Admission is free for 
 this family-friendly event that includes seven hours of food and fun. Nosh 
 and kibbitz, shop the shuk, and swing and sway to non-stop live musical 
 entertainment charting the Jewish musical journey across the globe. Parking 
 will be available on the Temple Beth El campus and at the nearby Cabrillo 
 College parking lot.\n\nEnjoy “real-deal” deli in Aptos’ own Lower 
 East Side; come into Nana’s kitchen for matzah ball soup shots; explore 
 Old City Jerusalem for Israeli classics like falafel and hummus; and 
 discover sweet home baked delights from Jewish communities around the world 
 at Bubbe’s Bakery. Complement your meal at the “BAR” Mitzvah serving 
 up wine and beer. \n\nAt the Kinder Korner children can enjoy supervised 
 fun in the playground, an all-day play dough table, and a chance to add 
 their own creative touch to making kipot-yarmulkahs.\n\nOn the outdoor 
 stage Ron Kaplan’s Jazz Trio shares Jazz music from the Great American 
 Songbook highlighting Jewish contributions to this very American art form. 
 The Kuumbwa Club Combo features the next generation of Jazz talent. The 
 Paris String Quartet plays music by classical Jewish composers.  You 
 won’t be able to resist dancing to Jeff Brody’s Klezmer Gypsy All Stars 
 or the Israeli sounds of Adama: Music of the Jewish People.  And back by 
 popular demand, the sultry Latin-Jazz musician and Ladino vocalist Kat 
 Parra, with her group, the Sephardic Music Experience. Temple Beth El’s 
 own Rock Shabbat Band adds a contemporary beat to Jewish liturgy. The 
 Festival stage closes with a community sing-along celebrating the 50th 
 anniversary of Fiddler on the Roof—the musical that linked so many 
 Americans to each other through “Tradition!!”  Santa Cruz’s own Ben 
 Jammin’ will be on hand as our chorus leader.\n\nOver 20 local and Bay 
 Area artists will offer their original work in booths spread along the path 
 that winds from Soquel Avenue to the Main Stage and Deli. Docents will 
 offer guided tours of the Sanctuary – and in the Library, visitors will 
 enjoy the beauty of the Jewish festivals as they are celebrated in the 
 home.\nCatch some fascinating and fun 18-minute Chai Time Talks. (Chai 
 means “life” and its Hebrew spelling also represents the number 18.)  
 You will face the ghosts and monsters in Jewish folklore; discover the 
 surprising rhythms and sounds that link various Jewish musical expressions; 
 explore shared memories evoked by Jewish foods and old stories; and, 
 finally, encounter the reversals and ironies of Jewish humor, as presented 
 by Temple Beth El ‘s own stand-up star, Rabbi Richard Litvak. 
 \n\nPresenting Sponsor: The Wedeen Hammer Group at Morgan Stanley\n\nThis 
 event is also sponsored in part by: Soy Vay, SunRidge Farms, Karon 
 Properties, Gail Michaelis-Ow and George Ow Jr., The Bess Family, Leland 
 and Marian Zeidler, the Musical Slugs, and media sponsors KUSP and KSCO.
