Link Excuse of the Week: Columbia City Beatwalk

Beatwalk is a neighborhood music festival held in Columbia City for the past 21 years. After the successes of 2013 and 2014, this year will also be a whole series of events held the second Sunday of the month June-October from 6-10pm. All shows, indoor and out, will be FREE. The location of downtown Columbia City is a short walk east from the Columbia City Link station.

Each Sunday event will have its own theme and unique lineup. Tomorrow's will be funk oriented:

Join us Sunday, June 14 as we kick-off Beatwalk 2015 and celebrate Beatwalk's 21st Birthday! Funky Times is the theme and we have a freakin' phenomenal line-up! Get your groove on to Grace Love & The True Loves, The Chancellors and Thaddillac! KEXP's DJ Johnny Horn will be spinning fantastic tunes on the street! There will be the usual circus of buskers on the sidewalks and spoken word artists. Also be sure and check out our new youth initiative program! As always it is FREE and Family Friendly!
