arts downtown

This past weekend was the Arts Festival downtown. Ryan and I went for just a couple hours on Saturday night and enjoyed the concert on the main stage with "The Disco Drippers" They were so good and we had a great time dancing and hanging out. Then Sunday night we went back. We were able to catch the performance of this group called Samba Fogo on the steps outside of the Library. They were way cool. I don't know much about them, but I know it is a Brazilian dance style with drums, fights, and fire. It was incredible.
We then went over to the Amphitheatre stage and watched this group preform their last five pieces. I was impressed.
So, if you did not make it out to the Arts Fest this year, you missed out. SLC is big time baby! They did a wonderful job! Be sure to tune in next year. Or, maybe check the one out in PC in a few weeks.
PS: It was a great place to reconnect with a ton of people. Everywhere we turned there was someone else that I knew or Ryan knew... random people that we haven't seen in forever. So between the good (naughty) food, eclectic art, and people watching, it's worth the entry!
