Street performers add to Salt Lake City's 'urban environment'

August 20, 2018 by Sean P. Means

What does it take to be a successful busker?

The ability to follow a crowd. A good "hat line," to cajole spectators into giving up their money. And for dancers on the sidewalk, comfortable shoes.

It also requires living in a city that welcomes street performance as part of the urban atmosphere. Organizers of the first SLC Busker Fest are trying to make Salt Lake City one of those cities.
