PLYMOUTH, Mich. - Michimich -- The Michigan Philharmonic is returning to Huron County with a very special live performance featuring the likes of Spiderman, Superman, Wonder Woman, The Incredibles, Captain America and much more.
Music lovers from all over "the Thumb" in Michigan will get to experience the outdoor concert, "Movie Icons and Superheroes," as the Philharmonic soars into Port Austin's Gallup Park on Saturday, Aug. 19 beginning at 4 p.m.
This is the second appearance by the Michigan Philharmonic as part of the Port Austin Artist-in-Residence Program. Led by longtime Music Director and Conductor Nan Washburn, the free concert will offer up a fun mix of movie music with a nod to famous movie icons too.
According to Beth Stewart, executive director of the Michigan Phil, although it is based in Plymouth, "loves to travel" and take its programs to communities around the state.
"The community of Port Austin welcomed us with open arms last summer and we can't wait to return," added Stewart.
Summer resident and Director of the Port Austin Artist-in-Residence Program, Cindy Patrick, said, "Port Austin is proud to host this free outdoor concert with the support of state and local arts organizations."
