Virginia Arts Festival’s community outreach continues this spring season as the Festival presents “The Concert Truck,” featuring free, accessible outdoor concerts in area locations May 12-15.
More details from the Virginia Arts Festival (www.vafest.org):
The Concert Truck is directly aligned with the Festival’s mission to bring world-class performing arts to citizens and visitors, and to make a tangible difference in the area through regional partnerships and cultural tourism.
Impassioned by their love for music and belief in its emotional power, pianists Nick Luby and Susan Zhang converted a 16-foot box truck into a fully functioning mobile concert hall, complete with lights, sound, and a piano. Since the duo first set out in 2016, The Concert Truck has presented performances across the country in city streets, music and arts festivals, schools, neighborhoods, parks, and beyond!

Wednesday, May 12 – 5:00pm
