Jackson Heights' volunteer-run concert series moves from Travers Park into local restaurants for fall, and this Sunday Gaston Kaisin's Tango Urbano brings Argentine tango to The Queensboro. It is a free, one-hour, neighborhood-scale show in one of the city's most diverse food neighborhoods. If you want a low-key Sunday evening before dinner on 37th Avenue, stop in.
What to expect
Expect a compact, one-hour set of Argentine tango in a neighborhood restaurant, with locals at tables and a relaxed Sunday-evening mood. The series is organized by neighbors, so the crowd skews local, and many people stay on for dinner or head out to eat along the nearby avenues afterward.
Good to know
