Ladies, thanks for being here t.
This is right around the corner.

just sounds like a wonderful planned event.
What can we expect?
We have a lot going on.
So the event again is Sunday, June 4th.
It's from noon to four.
And we have a little bit of everything.
The goal was to have something
for everyone at this event.
So we have what we call a shook,
which is a market and Israel
with local artists and vendors,
a little bit of everything ther.
You want to come out and support these
local artists, That would be gr.
We have a kids zone that has
an inflatable obstacle course,
a bouncy house, and then all kinds of
Israeli and Jewish arts and cra.
We have what we call the Mediterranean
Jumble, food and libations.
Ave.
which is,
so we have 7
food trucks there and the
food and also beverage,
it's a little adult beverages as well.
And then we have Nolan Billitzer
who's participating and he's a
prominent chef and he'll have
falafel once he had it last yea.
He's back this year. In additio,
one of our food trucks will have falafel.
So we have a lot of falafel,
but a little bit of everything as far as
the food variety at the event this year.
And then we have music, Israeli music.
We have DJ Aaron Thompson who will be
playing Israeli music all day l.
We have cantors,
3 cantors from synagogues that will be.
They have beautiful beautiful vs
that was singing the Hatikvah,
which is the Israeli national anthem and.
Camel we have.
And the camel she saved the best
from us there. The big surprise
your first year having camels t.
This. Yes. That first year we
have two camels. Yeah, coming i.
So it would be a spectacle for .
Why the camels and why did you
want to have it have the, I thik
traditional. It's something that
people may think of traditionaly
when they think of Israel,
although we know that Israel is.
Strong in their innovation.
So they have lots of new innovas
and it's like a thriving,
wonderful country.
You know, Tel Aviv is an increde
city with very, very modern.
But yeah, something sort of
traditional like that. So
yeah, I just, I'd love that thes
such a flavor of everything tha.
Come and learn, right?
Get to know your neighbors.
Come and try something new and different.
And it just sounds like you really took
whatever you did last year and thought,
OK, how can we do even more?
Definitely that was the
goal and you did that.
And Amy, you're going to talk a little
bit about like some of the vends
and some of the really authentic
things that you're going to have
there as well to purchase, right? So.
One vendor is coming from Israed
actually I don't know my earrinI
bought from him last time he was here.
So and the Homsa is a
it's like a sign of protection.
So the Homsa earrings will
have silk screening of Homsa
print with. Steam Exchange.
With Steam Exchange, we have
the bourbon rabbi with honey,
which will be really neat.
Honey. Yeah, yeah, for sure.
And so I need
to post on bourbon.
Let's put it in honey too.
Definitely it's.
But honey is really good, too.
I've tried it. It's great. Good.
Yeah, it's excellent. That's.
The thing is that there's going to be
so many unique things to even purchase
here that I can't find anywhere.
You know, I'm not going to findn
the states if they're bringing it from
Israel to set up shop here for .
Yeah. And again with the old with the
camels will also have an entire table
featuring the innovation of what is what
has been developed out of Israel like
from cherry tomatoes to ways to flash
drives that was all invented in Israel.
You brought the, I did see bring some
Dead Sea masks. It is from the Dead Sea,
so it's the lowest place on earth it is.
Nine times saltier than the
oceans that we we experience.
And so because of all that salt
we float and the mud at the
bottom of the Dead Sea is rich n
potassium and sodium and magnes.
So it's good for psoriasis
and acne and and skin.
So the healing powers of it.
So we're going to have a little
spot where kids can play with
it and so you just come and.
And people go when they go to the Dead Sea,
they cover their entire bodies t
and then they go float in the salt water
for the healing properties of t.
And then I also brought some Dead Sea salts.
So the last time I was there in 2019,
I just reached down into the Dead Sea
and picked up these salt crystals that
just form in this beautiful natural place.
And I love to just just the
way you explain this, right?
Like I think that's the the gret
thing you go to the vendors,
they get to explain, you know wt
this is and why it's important.
I mean, what do you hope peoplee
away when they do visit the festival?
I hope definitely they
learn about Israel for sure.
And then we, we love to bring
the entire community together.
It's bridge building.
It's just wonderful getting
everyone together in a space and
celebrating and and having fun.
Love it. All right,
this is coming up June the 4th.
