Thanks to all those that attended our March 4th Classical Percussion concert. It was one for the history books.

What an educational and inspiring visit yesterday from Al Otte and John Lane. If you’ve not checked out their work, it is moving, brave, and fulfilling as consumers in arts communities. Many thanks to all those that came to support their performance.
