5th Annual Middle Eastern Festival

St. George Antiochian Orthodox Church hosts its 5th Annual Middle Eastern Festival on July 20th, 21st, and 22nd of 2012.

Highlights of the festival include Middle Eastern cuisine, live entertainment, a traditional marketplace, a silent auction, games for children, and camel rides.  Admission to this family fun three-day event is free!  The menu includes: roast lamb, chicken kabobs, kafta, falafel, hummus, gyros, tabouli, homemade traditional pastries, and our famous Syrian bread.  Beer, wine, and soft drinks will also be served.  The nationally renowned John Khoury Band will perform, in addition to the St. George Dabke Dance Troupe.

The festival is being held in conjunction with our 99th anniversary as a parish.  The dates and times for the Middle Eastern Festival are Friday, July 20 from 12 noon to 10 pm; Saturday, July 21 from 12 noon to 10 pm; and Sunday, July 22 from 12 noon to 6 pm.
