This program will honor the legacy of well-known music educator Neil Haworth and his work at E.C. Glass High School teaching several generations of young musicians and inspiring many to pursue a career in music. The program will feature a variety of known band literature and some surprises in keeping with the spirit of the Lynchburg Pops Community Band, Lynchburg’s most exciting new large ensemble after its nearly sold out Sousa Spectacular in March of this year.
Note that the event producer and Artist may change dates, times, and/or venues depending on the current COVID-19 environment. Ticket buyers will be updated by the Academy Center of the Arts staff, should any change to schedule or venue occurs.
Videography and audio recording during the performances are prohibited. Photography of the set on stage is allowed pre-show, post-show, and during intermission. But we do ask that you show our designers and visiting performers some love by crediting them (and by tagging us) in your social media posts.
The Academy Center of the Arts offers a diverse selection of entertainment. Not all productions may appeal to or be appropriate for every guest or for all ages. Ticket buyers should take responsibility for making informed decisions regarding their purchases. We recommend visiting the official show website of each show you are coming to see at the Academy.
