GoModesto Blues Fest and Walk

Want some hot blues mixed in with your American Graffiti? 

There will be a huge Blues Festival on June 14 at Graceada Park.  There will be blues, there will be cars, there will be art and there will be fun.   Additionally at 10 am there is the United Community Walk, for Hope and Recovery, NAMI Stanislaus among other groups

 

Before the Blues Fest, the Commonality art group will be featured at the Modesto Certified Farmers Market.  This will be set up in the Library parking lot with many works and artists on display.  During the morning they will provide directions to Graceada Park where at 10 am, check in at the Mancini Bowl Modesto Blues Festival main stage for the walk  up to the Virginia Corridor Walking and Riding park via Enslen and west on Morris, by the Lion's Club kids park at Virginia and Morris, then up to Rotary Junction at Roseburg Square and return.

 

At 1 p.m., crank up the music, and start the Fifth Modesto Blues Festival, complete with cars, vendors, music, art, (got a good kids show coming in with El Concilio) food, drink, and great line up..... DJ Slate and Rocket 88, Rhythm Deluxe, Rene Solis & Laura Chavez in Guitar Extravaganza with Johnny Cat, Reno Blues Explosion of Blue Haven and The Whiskey Haulers, then MoFo Party Band...... and as it will start to get dark as John and Bill Clifton, Cobra wind down in the park. It doesn’t stop there.
