Lots of youth, music & art in the Grove these days

Last night, around 6 pm, the Grove was crawling with young people. It was so cool. A bunch of them ended up in the Windisch-Hunt Gallery and said they were from the New World School of the Arts.

They had funky clothing on and skateboards and some had art with them. It was really great to see. I had taken photos but deleted them by mistake, so sorry guys if you are looking for your photo here. My goof.

As I came through the Grove, I passed the Conservatory of Music and of course there were lots of high school kids there playing music and hanging out on the Mayfair Promenade and that is always the case on Commodore Plaza, with the Arts and Minds School. And it is such a cool thing when all these artsy musical kids mashup at the center of town near CocoWalk.

It's great seeing such youth and life and art and music coming back to the Grove.

Tonight if you're around, there is a music jam session at the Windisch-Hunt Gallery. It's when anyone is welcome to stop by with an instrument and play. The New World students were asked to return tonight to play, so hopefully they will and hopefully you will come out to hear them and hopefully I can get some good photos and manage to keep them and post them tomorrow.

It's from 7 to 10 pm. The gallery is at 2911 Grand Avenue, near the Bookstore.
