  • June 10: Heart & Soul Music Stroll, 3:00-8:00 p.m. along Atkin, Filmore and Glenmare Streets (1530 E. 2700 S.) in Sugar House. Event by Heart & Soul: "For the ninth year, Heart & Soul, along with the neighbors surrounding Imperial Park, will present our incredible, free, one-day music festival. Forty musical acts will perform on 15 porches, driveways and lawns—or on our main stage—throughout this Sugar House neighborhood (along with an ocean of food trucks). Join us as Heart & Soul celebrates 29 years of bringing the healing power of music to isolated neighbors along the Wasatch Front. Heart & Soul is a small nonprofit that brings live music to those who find it difficult if not impossible to attend a live performance on their own. Heart & Soul brings hope, healing and joy through live music and the performing arts to people living in institutions or otherwise isolated. We provide over 1,300 live musical performances a year in care communities in 13 throughout the state of Utah."
