The Dayton Philharmonic will present A Night of Symphonic Rock in person and virtually on Saturday.

The Urban Creative Arts Healing and Performance Symposium is today, tonight and Saturday. They celebrate culture and diversity in the arts through methods of individual healing, arts, education, and performances.

At the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force you can walk through the AC-130A Spectre which is a gunship and primarily used for night attacks against ground targets. You can chat there with pilots and gunners who actually flew this plane. It’s Saturday, 11am to 3pm and there is no cost.

A Night of Symphonic Rock presents classic rock favorites like you have never heard them before! Come Rock and Roll all night with the Dayton Philharmonic Orchestra on Saturday. In-theatre performances are at 6 and 8:30pm and live streaming is at 8:30pm. It’s 50 minutes with no intermission.

On Sunday at the Front Street Arts Center it’s a celebration of all things creative! You can tour art studios, catch a show at one of the galleries, shop the vendor market and enjoy live music! This is from 11am to 4pm.

We Care Arts is creating gnomes for a beautiful installation inside the much loved universally accessible community, Owen’s Place. You can sponsor a gnome and your name, or your family name, will be displayed. Sign up now because it wraps up at the end of the month.

Five Rivers MetroParks’ annual Earth Day celebration Adopt-A-Park will return this year — but with a different look. You are invited to participate and help MetroParks protect the region’s natural heritage by registering for and picking up free Adopt-A-Park service kits.

Best to all…
