BRUCE'S SALSA
Rhythm & Roots Market kicks off with an Asian Celebration - a nod to Bartlett’s sister city connection with Miaoli City, Taiwan.
On stage first at 4pm is local talent Axl with his band, followed by the Bartlett Chorus with Hakka songs and a special performance with Guitar Circle. Wear your best Demon Hunter’s attire to wrap up the event with a DJ-hosted K-Pop Dance Party.
This Thursday night destination with a global vibe invites you to shop the farmer’s market featuring local purveyors of fine produce, products and wares, then stay for the first-class local talent and professional band performances.
Participants are encouraged to bring a lawn chair, purchase a picnic dinner from a local restaurant or food truck and enjoy the live entertainment. Attendance is free.
