Hey Folks,
There's a new series starting up in my neighborhood (Hell's Kitchen, NYC) that I think many of you may be interested in. It's kicking off with a three day festival starting next week. It will take place at the Metro Baptist Church at 410 West 40th Street in Manhattan.
All info is posted on the Hell's Kitchen Cultural Center website:

Not only will this be a happening musical event but it supports the idea that neighborhoods matter. So come on out!
