Witamy means “welcome” in Polish, and it’s a greeting extended to young and old alike to join in on a festival of Polish food, music, dance and more at Chicago’s Navy Pier. This free, one-day event, generously supported by the Lira Ensemble and the Consulate General of the Republic of Poland, offers a glimpse into Chicago’s rich Polish heritage and traditions — home to the largest Polish population outside of Warsaw. Enjoy performances, sample food (especially at the famous Kasia’s Deli booth), and explore the wealth of folk art, costumes and gifts available to all.
