Ford begins free community concert series
July 8, 2010
The County’s John Anson Ford Amphitheatre kicks off its Summer 2010 free community concert series in our district this weekend with the Latin and Brazilian beats of Brazilando. They can be heard from 5-7 p.m. Saturday in the Los Angeles County Museum of Art‘s Outdoor Amphitheatre, located in the park between LACMA’s Hammer Gallery and 6th Street (Here’s a map.)
The Ford will present eight concerts in the Third District, featuring a variety of musical genres from Latin jazz and mariachi to R&B, roots reggae and soul. The concerts run from July through October. The county previously had supported the series through general funds but, because of budget cuts, county supervisors now are using their individual office funds to underwrite concerts in each of their districts.
See the full schedule of Third District concerts and start making your plans now.
The concerts are presented cooperatively with the L.A. County Arts Commission as part of the commission’s Free Concerts in Public Sites program.
