Live Entertainment
*6:15 - 7:15 p.m. Being Bilingual Rocks! Being Bilingual Rocks! is an interactive, one-of-a-kind experience created by Parents Choice Award Winners Alina Celeste and Mi Amigo Hamlet who are based in Chicago and travel the country sharing bilingual music, games, and culture. They weave an eclectic blend of original and traditional songs from Latin America, taking kids and families on a musical journey with a mix of bossanova, rumba-flamenco, contemporary Caribbean beats, bluegrass twang, and humor. Games and other musical activities are designed to be accessible and inclusive of diverse learners, creating a community experience that promotes self expression and confidence. Everyone will sing, dance, learn Spanish/English, and play musical games in a joyful, utterly unique blend of cultures, sound, and language.

*6 - 8 p.m. Rockin' Squares. Based out of Hinckley, IL, Rockin' Squares will share live square dance demonstrations and performances.
