Free.
Music starts at 7:00. I’ll be there by 6:00 PM. I'll try to save spaces but it's best to get there early. As seating fills up it becomes harder to save spots for attendees, of course. Hopkins Center for the Arts staff are anticipating that limited space will make it necessary to close the door to new audience members at some point. There is seating only for about 80 audience members in total in The Depot.
Get there early.
The performance may last only until 8:15 PM, or at the band's discretion may go until 8:30 PM.
Join me early for introductions and conversation before the music begins. Dancing is optional (of course), but encouraged.
The Hopkins Center for the Arts puts on the Sunset Series Outdoor Concerts, of which this musical performance is a part.

How to find us
I look like my photo. Look for my multi-color jungle leaves design cap. I'll post a comment once I'm seated letting you know where to look for me. During the performance many of us will be dancing in the designated dance area.
