Chico World Music Festival, Chico State University, Calif., September 14-16, 2012

The Chico World Music Festival, which takes place annually on the campus of California State University, Chico, is perhaps this town's most diverse musical event. On Saturday and Sunday, Sept. 15-16, the music, arts, artistans, and food vendors were spread out over four stages - two indoors and two outdoors on the campus' lush lawns. Here's a selection of images, as shot for CSUC's University Public Events (opening sequence of images are from setup on the 14th). The festival actually began with a Friday night show at Laxson Auditorium featuring Big Bad Voodoo Daddy. Photos © by Alan Sheckter / AlSheck@comcast.net.
