Zeke Leonard, musician
Here is an idea whose time has come.
We look forward to more music/concerts and live shows at Forman Park along the Connective Corridor. Today we witnessed professor Zeke Leonard climb atop a car to perform “This Land is Your Land,” complete with a recycled ukulele and a NY-made-kazoo.
Leonard’s lunchtime performance was part of the Corridor’s Green Streets and Local Eats festival.
Let’s find a way to keep the music going at Forman Park.
