San Jose City College student Angela Ensciso, who attended the last Summething Festival, said, “It was a great outdoor concert. My friends and I enjoyed the music, the park, the weather and even some recreational activities and freebies that the radio station prepared.”
In addition to live music, Now & Zen will introduce tons of vendors, booths, freebies and activities in which everyone is invited to participate; Now & Zen is an event for all ages.
