BRIC, the nonprofit Brooklyn arts organization, has announced the lineup for its annual Celebrate Brooklyn! Festival, now in its 41st year.
The festival will feature 29 performance from a variety of entertainers and is scheduled to run June 4 through August 10.
The festival kicks off with a free opening-night concert by legendary soul singer Patti LaBelle. Other headlining acts include alt-rocker Liz Phair, Iron & Wine, Tortoise, and the great Cuban jazz pianist Chucho Valdés, who performs on June 26 at the Prospect Park Bandshell.
Though 25 of the performances are free and open to the public—the four remaining shows are ticketed events—there is a suggested donation of $5.
For the schedule, see below. For additional artist information, go here.
