Dear Friends,
We are very excited to open our 59th season on Friday, September 24 at Harbor College and Sunday, September 26 at Pacific Unitarian Church. For the safety of our patrons, musicians, and all staff, we require that you be fully vaccinated and masked to attend these concerts. At the church we will keep all the doors open, so you might need a wrap.
Please join us for a most exciting and celebratory season opener with the incredible SAKURA Cello Quintet.
We are deeply grateful for your understanding and cooperation. We are all in this together. We will continue to monitor the Covid-19 situation and will follow guidance from public health officials and government agencies.
Sincerely, Robin Paterson
