发帖数: 2810 | 1 The 2nd Annual MOSAIC FESTIVAL: International Food and Music in Downtown
Greensboro (free admission) is this weekend, and this year's event is
shaping up to be a fantastic celebration of diversity in our community with
a jam packed schedule of events and a full house of ethnic food vendors,
crafts, jewelry, games for kids, and information booths surrounding the park
.
The 2011 Mosaic Festival will take place this coming Saturday, May 21, from
2 p.m. – 8 p.m. at Festival Park (200 N. Davie St) in Greensboro. After an
outstanding turnout last year, organizers have expanded the length of the
event and added a number of new musicians, including some of North Carolina'
s most popular international bands. This year's headliners The Brand New
Life (Global Jazz / Funk), Braco (Latin Rock), and Kairaba! (West African
Dance Band) will perform alongside an array of amateur musicians and dancers
from more than a dozen countries around the world (see full line-up here:
Mosaic 2011 Music Line-Up).
As you listen to the incredible music, wander through the marketplace where
you can peruse handmade crafts and jewelry. If you're feeling confident you
can even stop by the CWS Citizenship booth and test your civics skills
before heading over the ethnic street food fair, featuring snack size treats
from 15 different countries - the favorite fixture of last year's event!
Come hungry and ready to try something new! An inflatable moonwalk for the
kids and a Natty Greene's beer garden for the adults will give everyone a
chance to have fun, relax, and enjoy the show.
