Applicants:

There are many ways to participate in the Festival and we welcome you to apply.  Applications for ARTISTS, PERFORMERS and KOSHER FOOD VENDORS must be received as soon as possible.  Auditions for performers, juries for artists and acceptance will be held on a rolling basis.  Therefore, the earlier one submits their application the more likely the submission will be accepted.

Artists:

Over the past 45 years we have always produced a fabulous art fair featuring talented artists from all over the world.  Each artist is responsible for their own sales. The customer pays you, the artist, directly.  We will charge a flat fee of $275 per single space (10’x10’ space). A double space (10’x20’) is $500. Each space consists of ¼ of a 20’x20′ tent and 1 table.

For questions, please feel free to contact Karen Schur at Festival202040@gmail.com or Simon Lapidus at lapidus110@gmail.com 

Performers:

For over 40 years the Festival has been the longest continuously running Jewish festival in America and the largest Jewish event in the Chicagoland area.  We are seeking musicians and entertainers to apply to perform on our stages. The Festival has been a sought after destination for performers from around the country, Israel and other international cities who are looking for outstanding venues with quality stages and sound.  The Festival Entertainment Committee will review your material and determine whether your performance would fit within the program on our 2 stages.  Based on your audio submission we may ask you to audition in person.

Please fill out the Performer Application; or contact us at 847-933-3000; or email us at Performers@JewishFestival.org to be part of the Festival.
