Art, music, and craft vendors all came together at Shady Park in Tempe for the two-day Unity Kickoff Festival. Popular local bands such as Jerusafunk, Dirty Sunset, and Sunset Voodoo played music on both indoor and outdoor stages all night long. There was a lot of shopping to be done, like jewelry from Tempe Rags and Eclectic Awakening. To complete the evening, burlesque dancers teased and excited the crowd with some great performances. Unity Kickoff Festival did a great job bringing the Tempe community closer together. Photos by Mello Jello.
