Sukkot Harvest Festival | Palo Alto

Submitted by the Event Organizer

Celebrate the abundance of the season at a free, community-wide event for the whole family.

The Sukkot Harvest Festival will focus on the spirit of the fall season and the Jewish holiday traditions around Sukkot, the Festival of Booths, where people gather to celebrate in temporary, open-sided structures. Sukkot is a joyous holiday of harvesting and feasting. The festival will also showcase the fall season of OFJCC classes, programs and performances for all ages. The day will include food vendors and demonstrations, family activities, music, art, prizes and much more.
