HONK! has always been clear on its most basic premise, to literally blast out, musically loud and rhythmically direct, a call to come together. Started in Somerville and going on 18 years strong, this international phenomenon of activist street bands is definitely worth stopping by for this fall. Running October 6 - 8, you're not going to want to miss this Boston music staple! 📸 Leonardo March
