Later in the day, watch traditional dancers from the Ukraine and the Philippines and hear R&B artists tell stories from the road. Tonight, head over to the Motor City stage for an Evening with Fred Wesley and the New JBs.

Welcome to day five, the Fourth of July, at the Smithsonian Folklife Festival! Today, broaden your horizons with Tango de Medellín, a pair of dancers who teach tango as an alternative activity to counteract the violence in the Medellín, a former drug capital once known as the world’s most violent city. Just down the Mall, learn about how Peace Corps members deal with what it means to be “the American” during their time abroad or watch the National Hand Dance Association perform their unique form of swing dancing. There are no evening concerts tonight because of the holiday, but stick around the Mall for a magnificent fireworks display after sunset.
