Culture Around the Corner opens with four acts built to move you, literally. From a horn-fronted NOLA-style band to a soul-and-roots duo to a sunset salsa party to a singer-songwriter who turns folk into something wide open, Friday, October 2 sets the tone for a weekend that's all Jersey, all culture, all in one place. Jersey Shore comedian Jess Alaimo will emcee the full evening.
