SALSA FESTIVAL HEATS UP ALUM ROCK

Photos by Len and Amanda Ramirez


The first ever San Jose Salsa Festival in Alum Rock Village was a smashing success! The sounds of Latin Affect and Orchesta America got the crowd moving. The salsa and the moves on the dance floor/Quick Stop parking lot kept it hot. And the dozens of vendors and food booths made the afternoon fun. Hundreds of Alum Rock neighbors and families turned out for this first ever Salsa Festival in The Village. There was also salsa tasting, a dance demonstration, dance lessons, a dance contest, a raffle and much more. Check out all the photos and give us your comments on the festival in the space below!

The San Jose Salsa Festival recognizes and celebrates the music and flavors of the Latino Community! The event's cultural significance is that it represents the two international languages of the world - music and food.
