Want to get out for an evening of some really terrific orchestral music? The West Linn - Wilsonville School District is presenting their end of year concert at West Linn High School’s new auditorium.
I have attended these concerts for the past two years as I have had a child in the strings program, and simply because I adore violin music. I am never disappointed.
The cost is generally Free, with a donation box present at the concert if you feel so inclined.
It’s a terrific way to not only support arts in the school and community, but it’s also just plain good entertainment.
