El Museo del Barrio’s monthly free celebration of art, music, dance, and food heads outdoors on July 21 for a family-friendly summer block party on 104th St. Most of the special events take place in the late afternoon, with the Welfare Poets, domino tables, a pop-up photo booth, art workshops, A Lo Afro-Colombiano and KR3Ts dance classes, DJ EX spinning soulful tunes, and El Barrio’s Freshest 2012 breakdancing competition. The museum’s galleries are open as well, so you can beat the heat by going inside and checking out the exhibitions “Caribbean: Crossroads of the World” and “Voces y Visiones: Gran Caribe.”
