A coalition of gun violence prevention organizations in the DC/ Northern Virginia area have announced participation in the national “Concert Across America to End Gun Violence” on Sunday, Sept. 25.
Music will unite the country as artists from coast to coast rise up in concert to remember the victims of America’s gun violence. Locally, the region will join in music at 5-8 p.m. at the Tysons Biergarten, 8346 Leesburg Pike, just steps from the Greensboro Metro stop. Local and regional artists will perform. Confirmed artists include The Harried Americans, The Glimpses, singer /songwriter Tim White, The Rockits and the youthful voices of Know1Else, with more artists being added.
Local sponsors include Concerned Citizens Against Gun Violence, Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence (NoVA Chapter), Reston Herndon Alliance to End Gun Violence and Virginia Gun Violence Prevention Coalition.
