Somerset Chabad Sets Second Jewish Music and Arts Festival

Everyone loves an outdoor summer festival, and the Chabad Jewish Center in Basking Ridge is getting ready for the second annual Jewish Music and Art Festival on July 10.

Building from successful outdoor concerts in previous years the festival has grown to a full day Music and Art Festival, featuring live bands, artists, and diverse community organizations.

The festival is fast becoming a premiere Jewish summer destination for families and communities in New Jersey. Located in the rolling hills of Somerset County the Chabad Jewish Center’s 9-acre campus is a picturesque destination for an outdoor concert. The festival will take place at 3048 Valley Road, Basking Ridge.
