Fun Fest

Thank you to all those who made our 2023 Fun Fest a success! Over 330 people attended, enjoying live music from headliners Abena Koomson-Davis, Isabella Mendes, Viva Quetzal, the Expandable Brass Band, and the Música Franklin students. Additionally, the audience was captivated by Djeli Forchion’s storytelling and enjoyed participating in Elsa Borrero’s latin dance workshop. Kids and adults enjoyed getting their faces painted, making arts and crafts projects, trying out new instruments at the instrument petting zoo, exploring the giant piano mat, and playing with bubbles.
