Festivities begin at 5 p.m., including a special performance by Brooke Waggoner. The symphony performs at 7:30 p.m. The Musicians Corner was established in 2010 and focuses on engaging the community, promoting arts education, and supporting local artists.
Activities at the Musicians Corner include something for all ages. Kidsville is a destination for enjoying crafts, fitness and an educational Musical Meet & Greet. All that fun can work up an appetite, so be sure to stop by one of the food trucks and pick up something good to eat.
