Chabad's Tiburon Jewish Festival will expand offerings in second year at Zelinsky Park

 Chabad of Tiburon’s second annual Tiburon Jewish Festival will return to Zelinsky Park at 1 p.m. July 21, with cooking demonstrations, painting, live music and activities for kids in a community celebration of Jewish culture, heritage and identities.

But with a reported rise in antisemitic incidents of assault, vandalism and harassment and the ongoing Gaza-Israel conflict, the free event will also include a panel discussion on how to combat antisemitism.

Wife Mirel is the other co-director of the group, which is hosting the festival in partnership with the Tiburon Diversity Inclusion Task Force.
