Jewish Culture Festival

Polish festivals often are religious festivals due to the Christian influence that is dominate in the culture of Poland. The Jewish Culture Festival began in 1988 as scholarly conference but has grown into one of the most popular Poland events that encompasses synagogue singing, klezmer music and Hasidic, classical, and Jewish folk music.

Wianki is one Poland festival that has been around longer than any Polish events or festivals. This unique Poland festival began during Pagan times and is a celebration that remembers St. John. During the Polish festival, girls wear wreaths made from local flowers with a lighted candle in the center. They walk to the Visitula River where they throw the wreaths into the river. This Polish festival is centered on folklore that explains that if the wreath comes back to the shoreline, the girl that wore the wreath will never marry. On the other hand, if the wreath finds its way down the river, the girl will find her true love and live happily ever after. If the wreath sinks, the girl will die young.
