The City of Richmond’s Wessendorff Park.
The City of Richmond’s Wessendorff Park was created with an acoustically sound gazebo to satisfy musical tastes in a peaceful park setting. That gazebo will be tested with a free, all-day musical event presenting a variety of musical genres. Morton Street Music is back to introduce Concert on the Creek on Saturday May 21st from noon to 6 pm.
Rob Quarles, himself a musician, has desired to produce a music festival in Historic Downtown Richmond for several years. Morton Street Music, LLC was created exclusively to produce and promote live, seasonal outdoor concerts and eventually an annual all-day music festival in Richmond. Quarles began with A Fall Friday Night last October, though the weather didn’t work with him.
So, Concert on the Creek is now Morton Street Music’s inaugural event. Like last fall’s event, attendees can expect six bands and artists across a variety of genres, four food trucks, sno cones and an offering of vendors and craftsmen. Chairs, blankets and ice chests are welcome. Wessendorff Park, located on Preston Street between Fourth and Sixth streets just over the Railroad tracks, is near a variety of shopping.
