Noshfest returns Labor Day weekend after two-year absence

Noshfest
The playing of “Hava Nagila” is a long-standing tradition at Noshfest.

For the first time since 2019, Noshfest is a go.

The Jewish food and cultural festival at Temple Kol Emeth (1415 Old Canton Road) returns to its usual time slot—the Labor Day holiday weekend—in a format similar to pre-COVID.

After postponing the 2020 event to Spring 2021, organizers called that off too, and said the 2022 festival would take place in September.

The event, now in its 10th year, is open from 11 a.m. to 5 p.m. Sunday and Monday.

Entry is free but you’re asked to bring two cans of food per family to be donated to MUST Ministries.

In addition to food vendors and cooking demonstrations, the schedule includes live entertainment, tours of the synagogue, a kids’ zone, crafts, face-painting and dancing.

Among the Noshfest food items include noodle kugel, potato knish, cheese blintz, bagels with cream cheese, Dr. Brown’s sodas, babka, halvah, pastrami and corned beef on rye and Hebrew National hot dogs.

The local food vendors include Alumni Cookie Dough, Bagelicious, Marietta Diner and Shish Kabob Mediterranean Grill.
