When: Sunday, May 25, from 2:00-6:00 pm
Where: 2006 Hanover Street

What: Musical performances by two bands and at least one additional neighborhood musician. This is a family friendly event, with bubble machine, bagged snacks and juice boxes for the kiddos, as well as some refreshments for grown ups too. Kids can play in the yard and everyone can enjoy the music. The weather is supposed to be beautiful. Chairs will be put out in the front lawn for folks interested in stopping by, hanging out with neighbors, and enjoying the concert.

* Note from Josh: We have two full bands but are still looking for additional performers, so if you want to show off your musical skills to your neighbors, get in touch with me and I can put you on the list to play, for as little as one song, or for longer, just let me know.
