Happy Presidents' Day!
A Couple Facts about Today:
- Although it was originally meant to celebrate George Washington's birthday, it's now also viewed as an opportunity to celebrate all presidents, present and past.
- Despite being a federal holiday, states are free to call it whatever they wish and decide whether they want to observe it or not.
- Wonder where the apostrophe really goes? If you've seen it before the "s" (President's) or after the "s" (Presidents'), they're both right! It just depends on whether you're celebrating George Washington alone or if you're celebrating ALL of them.
We hope you're enjoying a long weekend or enjoying the start of a beautiful new week!

Black Violin at the Lancaster Performing Arts Center
Returning to the LPAC after a sold out performance in 2016, the classically-trained string instrumentalists Kevin Marcus and Wilner Baptiste (Wil B) continue to take the world by storm with their distinctive and versatile style, closing the gap between classical and popular music. Playing a variety of compositions and unique interpretations of standard versions, Black Violin fuses R&B, soul, rock, hip-hop and classical styles with results that are both groundbreaking and astonishing.
High school classmates, the two reunited after college and have been touring the globe ever since, collaborating with the likes of P. Diddy, 50 Cent, Tom Petty, Aerosmith, Aretha Franklin and The Eagles. Black Violin continues to change the landscape of contemporary music – with their own distinctively original and elegant style.
