NYU’s annual Strawberry Festival heads into its second quarter-century on Friday with a street fair bustling with live performances, carnival games (giant Jenga!), balloon art, a milking contest, children’s activities, ice cream, bubble tea, cotton candy, giveaways, and New York City’s longest strawberry shortcake. The music lineup includes Lightning Bolt, Peterodactyl, Ducktails, the So So Glos, and a Brooklyn vs. the Bronx DJ battle between DJ Jules Verne and DJ Juan Farrakhan as students and faculty celebrate the completion of the school year.
