ANNUAL FUNDRAISER The annual fundraiser for the Friends of the Cracow Jewish Culture Festival will take place in Richboro, Pennsylvania on Sunday, May 6th, 2018. We are looking forward to an evening of Jewish culture and incredible musical performances by Frank London's Klezmer Brass Allstars, made up of the best traditional and progressive klezmer brass band musicians in the world. Their raucous and ebullient approach to klezmer and Yiddish music is deeply rooted in the tradition, with one foot squarely in the 18th century and one in the 21st. Among many distinguished guests, we will host our GUESTS OF HONOR: Janusz Makuch - founder and director of the Jewish Culture Festival in Krakow. The festival, held since 1998, has become the world's largest presentation of contemporary Jewish culture from Israel and the Diaspora. Agi Legutko, Ph.D. - director of the Yiddish Language Program at Columbia University and lecturer in Yiddish. Born and raised in Krakow, she's been closely affiliated with the Jewish Culture Festival since 2001 and is involved in the contemporary Jewish revival in Poland.
