This week, some of the stories on our show inspired college student art — including a vivid image of a bear smashing a clarinet. Also, a Hare Krishna community in West Virginia serves vegetarian food made in three sacred kitchens. And, COVID-19 exposed the contempt society has for marginalized people. One author says, these folks are anything but passive.
Music starts at 6:30pm and the headliner hits the stage at 7:30pm. For more information about Live on the Levee (including where to park and what to bring) click here.

Grab some goodies from WVPB’s booth at Friday’s Live on the Levee.
Even better, West Virginia Public Broadcasting will have its own table at the event. Stop on by and meet local music program hosts like Eclectopia’s Jim Lange, All Things Considered’s Matt Jackfert, Lost Highways’ Bill Lynch and A Change of Tune and Mountain Stage’s Joni Deutsch. Grab some #wvpublic swag, take some pics with the voices of WVPB and tell us why you like to #listenlocalwv. Oh, and make sure to follow the show and our radio hosts (Jim, Matt, Bill and Joni) on social media.
See you tomorrow night, music fans!
