Coming to Second Stage April 13th - Mountain Highway!$12 in advance, $15 at the door
Tickets available at LynchburgTickets.com Mountain Highway® is an authentic young family band steeped in the traditional bluegrass and gospel music that was originally made famous by icons like Bill Monroe, Flatt & Scruggs, and Ralph Stanley. The band is comprised of four sibling singers who play banjo, fiddle, mandolin, and guitar, with their father playing upright bass. The teens are often heralded for their tight family harmony.
Second Stage celebrates Youth Art Month in a BIG way!We were delighted with the turnout for our visit from the Virginia Museum of Fine Arts' Artmobile from March 7 - 9. Approximately 400 members of our community joined us for the event. The Artmobile visit helped us kick off our 2nd Annual Youth Art Month Exhibition as groups from Amherst County Schools toured the Artmobile, visited the exhibition of art created by Amherst County Public Schools' Students, and met with 2 of the artists in residence at Second Stage, Charlie Tysver and Ken Templeton.
Local media took note of the event as well. Second Stage was featured in a Living in the Heart of Virginia episode, and on the front page of The Burg, as well as coverage in the Amherst New Era Progress. While the Artmobile has moved on, our Youth Art Month Exhibition will be on display through March 29. We hope you'll come visit! Looking for a way to get involved? Second Stage would love to welcome you to volunteer! Whether it's taking tickets at one of our events or helping us hang flyers at friendly neighborhood businesses, we can use your help!
