The Second Sunday Series will address three of the educational components of the mission of The Reynolds Homestead: the historical aspects of our music in SW Virginia; the importance of current performances of banjo, bluegrass, old-time and gospel music; and also the future of these traditions in young musicians and contemporary groups.
These traditions have created a wealth of material that is shared world-wide through its influence on contemporary music!
Refreshments will be served and dancing is encouraged!
Tickets for The Banjo-Rama will be sold at the door for $12 for adults and $6 for students.
