Harmony Festival will for the first time feature some Jewish speakers, performers and interfaith events.
The music, arts and culture festival, which begins today and runs through Sunday, June 10, has drawn thousands to the Sonoma County Fairgrounds in Santa Rosa for 29 years.
Sunday morning will feature several Jewish entertainers and thinkers. Chabad Rabbis Yisrael Rice and Yosef Langer will teach a Jewish meditation workshop at 10:45 a.m. Afterward, RebbeSoul will perform during an interfaith presentation. Tikkun's Rabbi Michael Lerner will speak at 12:45 p.m.
Langer, of San Francisco's Chabad, will also lead a kosher Shabbat dinner and prayer session Friday night on the campgrounds. A kosher food booth will be available throughout the weekend.
Tickets are available online through Ticketmaster, at the festival gates and at dozens of Bay Area businesses. Tickets cost $80 for all three days, $32 for one day. Camping is additional. For more information and a complete musical lineup, visit www.harmonyfestival.com.
