The Kalona Downtown Celebration begins this afternoon. Things get underway at 4 p.m. with a performance from Dave Zollo. After the community awards are presented at 6 p.m., The Don Welch Experience will take the stage. Justin Horesowsky will follow.

According to city administrator Ryan Schlabaugh the night ends with a family friendly movie on their new inflatable screen, purchased using a Washington County Riverboat Foundation grant.

The event started five years ago as a way to celebrate the completion of the downtown renovation project and has been held ever since.
