Our Roots
In July of 2024, the inaugural Rhythm & Roots festival was headlined by The Skatalites, a nationally touring Reggae Roots band, and proudly showcased performances from many of Western New York’s leading musicians and artists. In addition to incredible live music , festival-goers explored unique art exhibitions, enjoyed live art demonstrations by local artists, mingled with vendors,and much more - all while enjoying a lively, engaging atmosphere. The Rhythm & Roots team worked tirelessly to create an immersive environment that fostered community within our region, and none of it would have been possible without the support of donors and partners like you.
