Entertainment For All Tastes

ROSE KLEINER

Special To The Jewish News

T

ravelers can

literally
feast on New York's
finest entertainment
in July and August, without

Much of the city's cultural life
moves outdoors in the sum-
mer. Many exciting happen-
ings of Jewish interest for
families and singles also con-
tinue throughout the season.
There are free New York
Philharmonic concerts in the
city's parks and free Summer-
pier concerts at the South
Street Seaport during July
and August. The Shakespeare
Festival in Central Park's
Delacorte Theater is also free.
The First New York Inter-
national Festival of the Arts
continues through July 11. A

roof garden at the

Another great New York
outdoor attraction is the

pany, when it moves to the
Great Lawn in Central Park
for its annual summer

Moving indoors, there are
four plays of Jewish interest
running in New York. "A

Until July 10 you can see

in the 92nd Street Y. This
play is part of the first New

Accommodation in the sum-
mer can be more reasonable
if travelers take advantage of
some of the hotel packages of-
fered by many of the city's
hotels.
The Grand Hyatt's "Fan-
tasy Weekend" package in-
cludes free parking, and
children stay free when shar-
ing a room with parents. The
hotel even provides brochures
on things to do with children
in the city.
If you come to New York by
car you may wish to spend
part of your visit outside the

of landscaped grounds, indoor
and outdoor pools and
beautiful rooms are conve-
nient before, during, or after
a visit to the city.
