“I feel this is an event that is made possible by our new facilities,” Greene County choir director Dave Heupel said. “I know the hope was that with this new auditorium we could bring in nationally sought after performers, and this fits that description exactly.”
There is a $10 admission charge for the Friday evening concert.
