This Saturday, May 18, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM, Brooklyn Bridge Park will host a “Sound & Color Festival.” The Kite Festival of previous years will have added musical accompaniment. Kite flying will take place on Pier 5, the soccer fields pier near the foot of Joralemon street, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM. Bring your own kite, or learn to make one. Along with kite flying, there will be craft activities and face painting. Admission is free, and food and drinks will be available for sale.
