The JCC Festival of Jewish Culture is a large annual cultural celebration organized by the JCC. The Festival takes place over a number of weeks in May as part of Jewish Heritage Month, and culminates with the biggest day of the Festival on May 30th at the JCC. It showcases Jewish culture through music, food, art, dance, workshops, and community activities, and is open to the Jewish community and to the wider public.

The main event includes: live Jewish and Israeli music performances, dance performances, including Israeli folk dance, hands-on workshops for adults and children, Jewish and Middle Eastern food experiences (food trucks), a marketplace of local artisans, and cultural presentations highlighting Jewish history, traditions, and creativity.
