Below is an interesting upcoming event.

” The Jewish Federation of Greater Washington is hosting “Israel@65: A Food, Wine and Music Festival” at UnionMarket on June 9, in honor of Israel’s 65^th birthday – they’re basically going to be turning Union Market into something similar to a street festival in Israel. There’s going to be a ton of cool entertainment and music, including Israeli artists and performers, great food and wine and also a lot of family-friendly activities.

The food will be from local Jewish and Israeli restaurants and there will be local DC food trucks there, but one thing I think will be really fun is the Israeli Beer and Wine Garden.  They’re bringing in wine and beer from their sister-city region in Israel and will be doing tastings throughout the day – the beers have never been sold before here in the U.S.

The Jewish Food Experience will also have a section there where they’ll be doing cooking demos and preparing Israeli dishes throughout the day.  “
