Bronx Week, Baby

Bronx Week officially kicked off yesterday... We won't even try to list all the cool events that are planned around the BoogieDown.

Be sure to check out www.bronxweekevents.org for a detailed description of stuff happening each day.

We're particularly excited for the Bronx Day celebration at New York Botanical Garden tomorrow from 11am to 3pm. Stilt walkers, face painting, and contortionists, oh my! Pearl is gunna be all over it.

I don't think this is officially part of Bronx Week festivities, but the Pelham Parkway South Neighborhood Association, along with Bronx Arts Ensemble and Councilman James Vacca, will be hosting a live music festival this Sunday, 6/14, from 1 to 5pm at the Oscar Comras Mall monument (Bronx Park East and Lydig Avenue). There will be Latino and Dixieland music, along with New Orleans style jazz.
