Now in its 12th year, the annual Lower East Side Festival of the Arts will bring together under one roof in just three days, this Memorial Day weekend, over 100 performing arts organizations, local and international celebrities, independent artists, poets, puppeteers, film makers and many others--all of whom reside, work or have their roots in the culturally diverse, willfully anarchistic Lower East Side--for New York City's most diverse FREE 3-day festival, from Friday, May 25th through Sunday, May 27th, at Theater for the New City in Manhattan.

The 3-day, indoor and outdoor festival of the arts is organized by Theater for the New City and a coalition of civic, cultural and business leaders, and is FREE to all New Yorkers and visitors. Last year's festival attracted more than 3,000 people.

The LES Festival features performances for and by kids, and performers with disabilities. Additionally, the distinct ethnic communities of the Lower East Side are amply represented, including the Latin American, African American, Chinese, Indian, Irish, Italian, Jewish, Native American, Polish and Ukrainian communities.

All events are FREE and open to the public.
