Wild Scoops will be serving up free ice cream and Yeti Dogs will have food available for purchase.

THE ED WASHINGTON EXPERIENCE
With a soulful and engaging sound, The Ed Washington Experience gets intimate and creates a groove that can best be described as intoxicating. The Experience is fronted by Ed Washington on vocals and keys. On guitar is Levi Betz, bass is played by Oliver Petraitis, and on drums is Kengo Nagaoka. They will be playing original songs and covers like you have never heard them before!

During his years in the Anchorage music community he has played with several ensembles, won three Alaska Hip Hop & R&B Awards, and has been involved with many different community organizations. These experiences earned him a legislative citation for his accomplishments and contributions to the local art community.

He one day hopes to work on chart topping songs but in the meantime, he's looking to give back.
