AYS will return to South LA community center, A Place Called Home, to bring classical music to South Central families and the local community with a free concert on March 10, 2023!      Supported by the City of Los Angeles Department of Cultural Affairs, the concert will feature AYS string musicians performing in APCH's performance space, The Bridge Theater. Prior to the performance, there will also be an instrument petting zoo and instrument demonstrations. Audiences of all ages are welcome; doors will open at 6:30 PM and the concert will begin at 7 PM.      We love celebrating community and music, and are thrilled to partner again with APCH. \| |
