Vision 2020 and its Destination Downtown committee are ready to kickoff the summer with music, activities and food for the community.

The fourth annual Summer Kickoff Jam is set for June 3 at 5:30 p.m. on Main Street.

“Everyone in the community can come and enjoy it,” Kelsey Ritchie, Destination Downtown committee chair said.

This year’s main entertainment will feature local musicians in an “extended jam session” in celebration of the ArtRocks Jam Sessions at the Austin Artworks Center. A house band will accompany singers and instrumentalists from around the area.

“It’s pretty exciting to get more and more musicians coming out to play,” Ritchie said.

Several local organizations, like the YMCA, Austin Bruins, Yoga Studio of Austin and Austin Public School’s VEX Robotics, will be lined up with activities for families. Downtown restaurants will have special deals on food and drinks, and the Austin Jaycees will host a beer garden for adults.

“There’s something for everyone,” Ritchie said.

The Summer Kickoff will proceed rain or shine. In the event of poor weather, the music and entertainment will be move to the Historic Paramount Theater and family activities will be moved to the YMCA.
