MILTON, Wis. (September 24, 2026) – KANDU Industries, a Wisconsin-based nonprofit dedicated to serving individuals with disabilities and disadvantages, invites the community to celebrate fall at Harvest Jam, a family-friendly music festival benefiting KANDU’s programs and services, on Saturday, October 24, 2026, from 3 to 6 p.m. at KANDU’s Milton campus.
This year’s fall event will feature Electro Retro, a Chicago-based dance band bringing favorite hits from the 1960s through today to the stage. Guests can enjoy an afternoon of live music and dancing along with local food trucks, beer and wine, and a welcoming festival atmosphere for all ages.
