what started out as a modest plan of a filipino brunch and eyewear shopping, turned into a cultural tour de force. the indian community of jackson heights hosted an outdoor festival complete with jewelry vendors, bhangra beats, and cheap eats. its moments like this that remind me how awesome my borough is.
check out more photos here.



What a treat to find these photos (via jacksonheightsnyc.blogspot.com.) I was out of Queens for most of that afternoon, and by the time I got off the 7 train at 74th St., the police were hard at work dispersing the crowd: one cruiser that passed by was blasting the order, “The festival is OVER.” Partypooper.
WOW! Cool culture!
