DESCRIPTION:UPDATE: SUNDAY MAY\, 22  2016 – From the Desk of David Fisk \nGood News: we had a great day of music and dance indoors Saturday and we’re back outside in Abner Clay Park under the Big Tent again Sunday! Come check it out from 1.00 to 7:00 pm for beer\, wine\, food and festivities! \nBad news: it’s slated to be 20 degrees cooler than usual again on Sunday\, so bring a sweater. If the temperature does not get above 65 degrees\, it’ll be too cold for the orchestra to perform (and dangerous for our musician’s instruments)\, and the Symphony’s concert at 6.00 pm will be replaced by the heroes of Virginia Repertory Theatre\, Elegba Folklore Society and the Celebrate Jackson Ward Community Chorus in a shortened program to warm us up and send us all home singing. Current forecast is for a high of only 58 at 6.00 – we’re ready for either scenario so bring it on! \nSchedule Update: Due to inclement weather\, Saturday performances will move inside to Richmond Alternative School located right next to Abner Clay Park at 119 W Leigh St\, Richmond\, VA 23220.
