We are thrilled that we’re sponsoring Classical Strings & Traditional Fados at the Museum of Madeiran Heritage on September 26! 🎻🎤
This event beautifully blends the soulful emotion of traditional Portuguese fado with the elegance of classical strings performed by talented musicians from the New Bedford Symphony Orchestra.
It’s always special to support experiences that bring our community together through music, culture, and shared heritage. Hope to see many familiar faces there!
