Sept 9, 10, & 11, 2022
St. George Greek Orthodox Church in the Lincoln Park area of Chicago's north side and was established in 1923 by Greek immigrants. St. George remains an important center for worship and fellowship for its parishioners and friends from throughout the Chicagoland area. Through the gifts of the holy spirit in faith and determination these new Americans were able to purchase the Lutheran Church at 2701 N. Sheffield Avenue and adapt it for Orthodox worship in time for services to be held in April 1923.
Being Greek means relishing the world around you and enjoying life to its fullest. Come experience the Ancient Greek concept of "filoxenia" and the famous hospitality of the Greek culture. The Lincoln Park Gyro Fest gives us the opportunity to open our hearts and our kitchens as we share our culture with you!
This new cultural celebration will serve up authentic flavorful food, music, and pure fun.
The St. George Greek Orthodox Church and the Lincoln Park Greek Community are proud to host the Lincoln Park Gyro Fest. So. . . Come on! Elate! Be Greek for a day. Come to the fest and see what we're all about. It no longer has to be "All Greek" to you! Opa!
