Local Life 3rd Friday is a lively and fun way to explore the unique and locally owned shops in Downtown Overland Park!

Join us on Friday, 7/20, to beat the summer heat with a night full of gallery openings, live music, free food and drink samples, spa treatments, sales, giveaways and so much more from 5:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m.! Grab a picnic dinner from your favorite Downtown eatery and bring it to Santa Fe Commons Park for a FREE concert with The Weasels at 7:00 p.m. and FREE movie at dusk during Downtown OP's second Movies in the Park night of the season.

*** BEAT THE HEAT. DRUM LOCAL. ***

BEAT THE HEAT. DRUM LOCAL....at Downtown Overland Park's first ever community drumming event during July's Local Life 3rd Friday event on 7/20!

Join the Culinary Center of Kansas City from 5:00 p.m. - 8:00 p.m. for a special performance by the KC Drum Circle.

At 7:00 p.m., though, it's all about audience participation as we encourage our neighbors...and YOU!...to step outside and get your own bad self down with the rhythm of the downbeat. Grab your bongos, congos, bodhran, djembes, tom-tom or tambourine…or heck, the Culinary Center will outfit you with a pan and a wooden spoon, ‘cause anything goes at this unique group drumming session.

No experience necessary. Kids love this stuff, too!

Now YOU tell US... can you BEAT that for a fun Friday night?!

RSVP here to receive updates about all of the exciting things going on during this month's event!
