So much going on this weekend from Diversity Weekend, Ozark Mountain Soul, and the Eclipse, here’s a quick rundown of what we got. Starting with Ozark Mountain Soul at the Farm, the times below are just for music and not indicative of the whole festival. Camping and fun are to be had all day, each day, with artists playing of a variety of genres but all knit that Ozark folk and Americana feel you can only get from this area. Tickets can be found at opalagafia.com/ozarkmountainsoulfestival as well as a full lineup. Diversity Weekend keeps us busy with activities to show pride in everything that makes you, you. Whether you are partying all day in Basin Park or maybe having a brew at Brews or Gotahold, you’ll be having a blast in places with love overflowing. At the Auditorium on Sunday evening is Moonlight Before the Eclipse Concert which promises to give a unique experience with Aviva Tu, Doug Powell, Tim Hillwood, Catherine Reed performing and Jim Fliss MCing the evening. Tickets for that may be found at avivatu.com. Eclipse day is Monday with our 98 percent at 1:50 p.m. or so, as there is variation depending on your source. Find a place and look up (with eclipse glasses!) The sun will become a sliver of its normal self for several minutes! Until next week…. ~ j
