Global Union

The Bay View Bash isn’t the only major free music event going on in Bay View today. Alverno College’s annual Global Union world music festival will be taking place just a couple blocks down in the neighborhood’s beautiful Humboldt Park. Today’s line-up includes 17 Hippies (a German band, at 1 p.m.), Huong Thanh & Nguyen Le Quartet (from Vietnam, at 2:30 p.m.), Lekan Babalola (from Nigeria, at 4 p.m.), and Zemog and El Gallo Bueno (acts from Puerto Rico and New York City, at 5:30 p.m.).
