Playing for History Museum Open House at Loray Mill
An old mill (Loray Mill in Gastonia, NC) with a storied past (see my prior posts about the mill strikes, Ella May Wiggins, and taking part in a cd project) gets a spectacular renovation into condos but with a nod to the past with the creation of the Alfred C Kessell History Center in the mill. I enjoyed playing music for the open house (hundreds of people turned out--many with connections to people who worked in the mill).
