Skies Might be Gray, but Don't Stay Away! Join Us Today for a Wonderful Day!!!!!

Welcome!

On Sunday, September 14th, 2008, Woodlot Park (directions) in South Brunswick will play host to the First Annual REJOICE Festival: The Central NJ Jewish Music & Cultural Festival. Join us in a celebration of the vitality of the Jewish community in Central NJ. There is no better way to cebrate than through music, dance, food and culture, and we have plenty of each!

Please Join Us!

Like the old saying goes, "You don't have to be Jewish to enjoy a bagel!", and you certainly don't have to be Jewish to enjoy the REJOICE 2008 Festival. It will be a day of fun, of music, of celebration and of joy.

Bring a lawn chair or a blanket to stretch out on, grab something delicious from the food vendors, and sit back and enjoy the music! Or stroll through the over 25 vendors tables and find a unique gift. Or get up and dance as the music moves you.

Admission is free, but please try to bring a donation of canned or dry food for the South Brunswick Food Bank. Even in our celebration, we remember and try to help those less fortunate then ourselves.

Questions? Please leave a message on our hotline (866.364.1455) and someone will return your call as soon as possible.

See you at the Festival!
