Weekend Arts Preview 3/7-3/8

This week, the entire Nashville community was impacted by the tornadoes that destroyed hundreds of homes and businesses. The shining light afterward has been the willingness of people throughout our community to come together, donate money and goods, and to volunteer with cleanup and recovery . To help, ABC has created an online resource with an ongoing list of creative community-led efforts. This weekend is filled with events that can provide a respite and a sense of community. Many events are new or impromptu fundraisers for tornado relief efforts. We encourage everyone to support the relief efforts in whatever way they can, and we continue to keep those impacted in our thoughts.
