In honor of Hispanic Heritage Month, the Park will be hosting Salsa on the Thames! This one-hour cruise will feature musicians and childhood friends, Alessandra Gonzalez and Daniel Villegas. From their indigenous background to their Nuyorican way of thinking, Daniel and Alessandra truly represent Colombia and Puerto Rico. To see them perform is to be back in the homeland, wherever that may be for you. Join us for this toe-tapping cruise as they bring culture to the Thames.
