This year's festival, which runs through Sept. 29, includes 10 days of free activities at dozens of East Village/LES community gardens. Each garden features various performances, concerts, workshops, and other related events. Check the LUNGS website here for the day-by-day, garden-by-garden schedule.
The opening night event at La Plaza Cultural on the SW corner of Avenue C and Ninth Street starts at 6 ... showcasing Avon Faire, performing traditional Celtic and English folk songs, and Source and Abdoulaye Diabate, providing "a vibrant and danceable mix of music of Guinea and Mali with a jazz inflection."

We are big Avon Faire fans. Looking forward to this.
I love community gardens but in this day and age of a housing crisis we need to think about converting some gardens to affordable housing. Especially the small gardens that are shade bound and barely have visitors.
Couldn’t disagree more. Don’t put gardens and affordable housing against each other
