Jewlicious to present Tikkunfest in LA Oct. 24

Jewlicious, the popular three-day festival that takes place annually and features an impressive roster of the most talented musicians, comedians, and other artists producing contemporary Jewish culture, is bringing Tikkunfest to Los Angeles on Sunday, October 24. The event will feature community service and social action culminating in a free concert for volunteers (non-volunteer concert goers will pay a $10 ticket fee).

Tikkunfest will spread out over 18 blocks of Pico Boulevard in Los Angeles. Volunteers will plant fruit trees and herb gardens in custom made planters, paint, clean up garbage, repair items, collect clothing and food for the needy, assist seniors, and promote community involvement. The event supports Worldwide Jewish Social Action Month and The LA Green Mile, which began a few years ago to help clean and revitalize the section of Pico Boulevard that runs through the most thriving part of Jewish LA.

WHEN: Sunday, October 24
1:00 – 8:00 PM

WHERE:
TIKKUNFEST (Next to Bnai David)
LA Parking Lot 689
