Soup at Six: Music to Our Ears: The Grand Army Band to the Canton Concert BandJoin Ally Carlson, Director of Education at the McKinley Presidential Library & Museum, on March 19 at 6:00 PM for a fascinating exploration of Canton’s rich concert band history—from “McKinley’s Own” Grand Army Band to the still-active Canton Concert Band.
As part of America 250 in Ohio’s March theme, “Ohio Entertains,” this program highlights how music shaped Stark County’s culture, political campaigns, and even produced a “March King” to rival Sousa during the era of William McKinley.
$25 per person (includes soup, bread, and dessert). Reservations required by March 12.
Register at qrco.de/bgMTnx or call 330-455-7043 during regular business hours.
All proceeds support the Museum’s mission to connect audiences through history, science, and the legacy of William McKinley.
