Where: Winterfield Elementary School, 3100 Winterfield Place.
In celebration of Welcoming Week, the Charlotte Symphony and Community School of the Arts, in collaboration with Winterfield Elementary School, will present a community festival to promote inclusion and diversity to residents of east Charlotte’s Winterfield neighborhood. The festival will begin at 1 p.m. and will include arts, crafts and musical acts, culminating in a 4 p.m. performance by the Charlotte Symphony in the gym at Winterfield Elementary. Music Director Christopher Warren-Green will conduct the program, which will run approximately an hour long and include diverse selections representing cultures from around the world.
Charlotte Symphony musicians often teach and perform at Winterfield during each season as part of the Symphony’s after-school youth orchestra, but this event will mark the first time the full orchestra has played at the school.
The concert will be followed by a meet-and-greet, allowing audience members to mingle and visit with some of the musicians, Maestro Warren-Green, and artists.
This community event is free and open to the public. The festival is sponsored by the Arts and Science Council in partnership with the Culture Blocks program.
