SUMMARY:Music in the Chamber: 1976-2026
DESCRIPTION:Wandering the vast landscape of global traditions\, Nadodi unites musicians from around the world in search of a new sound. Nadodi is on an ever evolving journey\, pulling from roots in India\, the United States\, Indonesia\, Malaysia\, Israel\, and more.

This show will feature music from 1976 to 2026.

SUMMARY:75th Annual National Square Dance Convention
DESCRIPTION:The 75th Annual National Square Dance Convention will be June 24-27\, 2026 in Waco. Texas is hosting this annual event for the first time in 20 years. The convention will bring approximately 4000 people from all over the United States who love the activity of square dancing. In 1991\, Texas officially recognized square dancing as the state’s folk dance through H.C.R. no. 153\, highlighting its cultural significance and deep-rooted heritage. This recognition wasn’t just a nod to tradition; it was a celebration of how square dance fosters community bonding across Texas. It is also considered a national dance of the US. Friday\, June 26 is designated as Celebrate USA250 Day. An introduction to square dancing will be open to the public during the day and an evening program will feature patriotic music and recognition of our military. Attendees will wear red\, white and blue square dance attire. We are looking into the possibility of having a fireworks display that night.We are going to reach out to the Sons and Daughters of the American Revolution Chapters; area schools and colleges; and other organizations to promote this opportunity to participate in this celebration! \nThis event will cost $20 for one day; $80 for the full convention.
