Artosphere Festival Orchestra
Courtesy
School’s out, and the students are back in Dallas or wherever for the summer, and that means it’s time for the full-time residents of Fayetteville to reclaim the city for the next couple months.
There are plenty of reasons to get out and enjoy the shorter lines at the bar, too. Music-wise, Denton-Texas based pop rockers the Jessie Frye Band will be in town for a show at George’s with locals, Paper Anthem.
There’s a rock show at The Lightbulb Club with Dallas, TX band SilverTongue Devil and locals, Witchsister.
One of the signature events of the annual Artosphere Festival is Friday night at Crystal Bridges. The Artosphere Festival Orchestra will be performing a concert entitled “Mozart in the Museum” at 8 p.m. It’s the orchestra’s last performance of this year’s festival. Here’s more information.
