HarborPark Jazz, Rhythm & Blues Festival is one of Kenosha’s favorite music events and returns this year with a powerful mix of New Orleans style Jazz, straight ahead Jazz and true hometown Chicago Style Blues.
After a five-year hiatus, the Arts & Crafts Village returns to the HarborPark festival showcasing a broad mix of juried fine art, paintings, prints, photographs, sculpture, jewelry, handmade clothing, fine crafts and a lively art-making tent aimed at families with young children. Artisans will showcase their talent in a variety of mediums on the beautiful shores of Lake Michigan. Art pieces, prints and merchandise will be available for purchase. The Kenosha Art Association is partnering with the event to produce the Arts & Crafts Village.
Music Lineup & Schedule, straight from their website (times subject to change):
2:30 p.m.: Natty Nation opens the main stage with a Caribbean presentation of Reggae music. JAH Boogie and his band’s tight but fluid, rootsy but funky, beautiful but gritty, righteous but real vibration is clear to anyone listening on stereo or live in concert. It’s almost impossible not to dance at a Natty Nation show, where their message is simple: Spread the positive vibration!
4:00 p.m.: Milwaukee’s hottest R&B band Christopher’s Project with Joe (the Crooner) Jordan
5:45 p.m.: Nora Jean Bruso Blues Band
7:30 p.m.: Internationally-acclaimed saxophonist Paul Taylor will perform as the main evening act.
