The Voice of ONE Gospel Singers, will perform songs of peace, love and spirituality, followed by Titus Fotso with UniverSOUL Sound System, a modern blend of fast-paced dance beats and socially conscious lyrics. Las Cafeteras ends the day’s celebration with an energetic bilingual performance fusing Afro-Mexican, hip-hop, folk, and Native American sounds with a community-focused message.
FARMERS MARKET CULINARY STAGE: MC Laura Avery from the world famous Santa Monica Farmers Market will get things cooking with local chefs and culinary experts who will share their secrets to sourcing and preparing meals that are delicious, budget-friendly, and sustainable. Younger festivalgoers can join in the fun with Kids’ Kitchen with Kelly Dumke where they can participate in several nutrition-related presentations. Kids can also test their culinary skills during a kitchen tool quiz and simple recipe preparations.

Lastly, Chef Josie Le Balch of Josie Restaurant and former Josie alum Chef and TV personality Jill Davie, will battle it out to see who will reign as the Farmers Market Chef Challenge 2014 winner.

All chef participants are from Santa Monica-based businesses to promote the City’s Buy Local Santa Monica initiative.
