The Lower East Side comes alive on June 6 for the tenth anniversary of the annual Egg Rolls & Egg Creams festival, celebrating Chinese and Jewish culture that go well beyond the Jewish tradition of having Chinese food on Christmas Day. This year’s free fete includes klezmer and cantorial music, lessons in Yiddish and Chinese, Chinese opera and acrobats, folk dancers, arts & crafts and workshops, mah jongg, and much more. In addition, the Museum at Eldridge Street will be conducting tours of the historic synagogue. Oh yeah, there will also be plenty of kosher egg rolls and egg creams for all.
