Visiting from Colombia, this band joins the summer series with a powerful rhythm and energy all their own. Their fun, upbeat style brings together funk, salsa, and elements of Caribbean music, including calypso, zouk, and Haitian compas, and gets audiences on their feet and dancing from the first note.
From Bluegrass to Creole, from Afro-Cuban to Mexican Mariachi—with a little 80s pop in the mix—Penn Museum’s popular Summer Nights Concert Series offers a little something for everyone. Now in its seventh year, the Wednesday night series runs from June 15 through September 7, 5:00 to 8:00 pm, in the Museum’s outdoor Stoner Courtyard garden.
The Pepper Mill Café offers a garden bar, with beer, wine, and cocktails as well as non-alcoholic beverages, and regionally-themed happy hour fare available for purchase. Guests can opt to sit at outdoor tables, stage-front seating, or lawn seating to enjoy the performances. Galleries remain open, and guests may choose to take a short docent-led gallery tour at intermission, or enjoy Museum galleries on their own, until 8:00 pm. Concerts take place rain or shine, moving inside in inclement weather.
General admission, which includes admission to the Museum’s galleries, is just $10; $5 PennCard holders and Penn Medicine and CHOP employees with ID; free for Penn Museum Members. (There is an additional fee for the special exhibition The Golden Age of King Midas.)
The Penn Museum is located at 3260 South Street, Philadelphia, PA 19104 (on Penn's campus, across from Franklin Field).
