The Friday Five

Welcome to the Friday Five

A Little Music a Little Learning, and a Lot of Community!

We’re enjoying every bit of Fall - from beautiful afternoons filled with live music to opportunities to learn something new and connect with others. This week, we’re sharing helpful resources, upcoming presentations, and a chance to make a difference in the lives of Chester’s students. Let’s get into this week’s Friday Five!

It was a Beautiful Day for Music at Friendship Circle
