We are just under two weeks away from our first summer concert in Ardenwald Park! If you like your blues on the greasy side with some soul and funk thrown in for extra flavor, this is the one for you. The legendary Curtis Salgado Band is bringing their powerhouse soul, blues, and funk to the Ardenwald Summer Concert Series on August 6th.
Ben Rice & The PDX Hustle closed out our series last year, and Ben’s back as part of Curtis’s band this year.
Bring your lawn chairs, pack a picnic, and join your neighbors and enjoy one of the Northwest’s finest musicians right here in our neighborhood. It’s going to be an unforgettable night!
Delicious eats from Milwaukie Pizza Co., Luna's Ice Cream, and Freehand Bakery will also be available.
Parking is limited, so please walk, bike, carpool, or catch Tri-Met! Convenient stops: #75 at 32nd & Floss, or #34, 40 & 75 at 42nd & Johnson Creek Blvd.
