SUMMARY:Queens Hispanic Day Parade
DESCRIPTION:Update: This parade was postponed from September 27 due to the nor’easter and merged into the Queens Dominican Day Parade on Sunday\, October 4. \nA vibrant celebration of Hispanic heritage and culture featuring colorful floats\, traditional dance performances\, live music\, community groups\, and local leaders. \n37th Avenue – 69th Street to 89th Street \nAmericans celebrate their Hispanic roots in the 21 Spanish-speaking countries with marchers showing Latin music\, dance\, traditional costumes\, floats\, food\, and more.\nTheme: Unidos Somos Más (United We Are More)\n37th Avenue\nFrom 69th to 86th St\nJackson Heights\, Queens\nSun\, October 4 2026 | 12pm \nOriginally scheduled for Sun\, September 27\, 2026\, the parade has been moved to Sunday\, October 4\, 2026 because of the big storm hitting NYC this weekend. What we’re doing is joining the Queens Dominican Parade scheduled on that day. That’s great because Dominicans have long believed in the Pan-Latin concept of us as one people. \nNearly 100 cultural\, civic\, and business groups are expected to march. \nQueens Hispanic Parade 2026 Court: \nQueen: Genesis Vaca\nPrincess: Veis Ríos\nInternational Ambassador: Carina Gómez\nReina de Reinas: Gina Vásquez\nBeautiful Forever: Angie Florales\nCongratulations to the 2026 court. You represent us all proudly. \nA plaque was presented to the family of María Bueso\, a founding member of the Queens Hispanic Parade and of the Fundación Siempre Colombia\, at the parade’s gala at Terrace on the Park in Flushing Meadows Corona Park. \nThis year’s theme is right on. Together we are strong. It’s worth noting that our country\, the United States of America\, has the world’s second-largest Spanish speaking population\, after Mexico. Somos muy orgulloso para mantener la idioma de nuestros padres. It even makes us better Americans. \nAnd it’s really important this year for American citizens to vote for members of Congress who represent all of us. Latinos have more political power than ever. Two years ago\, many of us voted for a strongman character who hates Latinos and all people of color. It’s time to take our country back by voting because we are Americans too.

His distinguished career includes initiating Cuba’s first tap festival\, collaborations with Cuban rumba masters\, jazz greats\, and tours with prominent percussion and tap ensembles.

His artistry is not just a performance but an experience\, inviting audiences to witness the transformative power of the body as an original instrument.

SUMMARY:Jackson Heights "new to the neighborhood" meetup
DESCRIPTION:​New to Jackson Heights? Thinking about moving here? \n​Or a longtime local who loves welcoming others? \n​Come meet some neighbors\, swap tips\, and ask all the questions you’ve been wondering about. \n​Super chill\, super friendly. \n​A few special guests doing great work in the community will be joining us to say a few words too. \n​At past meetups\, we’ve had folks from across the neighborhood pop in to share what they’re working on – from local bookstores and Open Streets\, to community organizing\, small business groups\, and arts collectives. \n​We’re especially excited to welcome people who are new (or new-ish!) to the neighborhood – but longtime Jackson Heights folks are very much part of what makes this special too. \n​After the event\, we usually head down the road for dinner or drinks – feel free to join!

SUMMARY:The Pedro Giraudo Quartet — Contemporary Tango
DESCRIPTION:The Pedro Giraudo Quartet opens the evening with contemporary tango led by Latin GRAMMY Award–winning bassist and composer Pedro Giraudo\, blending Argentine tradition with modern energy\, lyrical depth\, and expressive improvisation. \n7:00 pm to 8:00 pm (First Set) \n9:00 pm to 10:00 pm (Second Set) \nAdmission: $20 Cover charge Mezzanine \nFeaturing: \n\n\nNicolás Danielson – violin \n\n\nRodrigo Ávalos – bandoneón \n\n\nMartha Kato – piano \n\n\nPedro Giraudo – bass \n\n\nAbout Pedro Giraudo: \nLatin GRAMMY Award–winning bassist and composer Pedro Giraudo is one of the most compelling voices in contemporary tango. A native of Argentina and long based in New York\, Giraudo has become an active cultural ambassador of tango\, expanding its language while honoring its deep tradition. \nAfter two decades performing with some of the most important interpreters of tango\, he debuted his own Tango Orchestra at Lincoln Center’s Midsummer Night Swing in 2015\, establishing himself as a leading figure in the global tango scene. His 2018 album Vigor Tanguero won the Latin GRAMMY Award for Best Tango Album. In 2014\, he recorded bass on Rubén Blades’ Tangos\, which won both a Grammy and a Latin Grammy. \nGiraudo has collaborated with an extraordinary range of artists including Pablo Ziegler\, Paquito D’Rivera\, Branford Marsalis\, Kenny Garrett\, Regina Carter\, Miguel Zenón\, and William Cepeda\, among many others. He has performed at major venues worldwide including Carnegie Hall\, Lincoln Center\, the Kennedy Center\, the Blue Note (USA & Japan)\, Birdland\, and London’s Queen Elizabeth Hall. \nAs a composer and arranger\, Giraudo bridges Argentine tango\, classical forms\, and jazz improvisation with striking orchestral depth. He has conducted the WDR Big Band and the Cologne Contemporary Jazz Orchestra\, and has been commissioned by major cultural institutions to create new works celebrating Argentine and Afro-Argentine heritage. \nHis work reflects both mastery of tradition and fearless contemporary exploration. \nAbout Pedro Giraudo Quartet: \nThe Pedro Giraudo Quartet represents the evolution of tango in its most intimate and dynamic form. Drawing from the traditional orquesta típica\, the transformative language of Astor Piazzolla’s tango nuevo\, and contemporary compositional approaches\, the quartet offers a sound that is both rooted and forward-looking. \nThrough lush harmonies\, intricate counterpoint\, and passionate improvisation\, the ensemble reimagines tango as a living\, breathing art form. Giraudo’s compositions and arrangements create a dialogue between Argentine tradition and modern jazz sensibilities\, preserving the emotional depth and rhythmic intensity of tango while expanding its expressive possibilities. \nThe quartet’s performances balance refinement and fire\, honoring the past while embracing the future of tango on the international stage.
