Our Own Mini Ravinia; OUTSIDE at the Research Park

Once again, Krannert Center brings two dynamic performances to the U of I’s Research Park for the second of their three-show series, OUTSIDE. Tonight, Urbana’s Brandon T. Washington and Chicago’s Bandoleros will perform at 6:30 and 7:30 p.m., respectively. With Washington’s powerful voice and Bandoleros’ multi-ethnic musical influence, there’s no reason to bring a chair: you should be dancing.

Delicious stuffed mushrooms, savory sumoni, ice cold water and robust wines, along with other delectable foods will be available at Biaggi’s Restaurant concession located at the northwest corner of the Caterpillar/SAIC Building. But you may also bring you own food and beverages. So — feed your belly, loosen up those limbs and hit the dance floor.

If there’s rain, you can call 217-333-6280 until 8 p.m. to check if the event will still take place. The public venue is located southwest of Assembly Hall on First St. in the Research Park on 1816 S. Oak St. in Champaign and parking is free in the lot south of the Caterpillar and SAIC building at 1901 S. First St.
