  • Puerto Rican pride: Crowd celebrates at Bomba y Plena festival in Lawrence

    LAWRENCE — The heat and humidity weren’t enough to discourage a large crowd from turning out Sunday afternoon for the third annual Bomba y Plena music festival in Lawrence. Many people dressed in red, white and blue – Puerto Rico’s national colors – and some even waved Puerto Rican flags in celebration of their native country. They joined together to socialize while enjoying music and food. The event is largely sponsored by Instituto Cultural de Puerto Rico.
