Weโre so honored to have been a part of the first annual Day of Community Music, hosted by the FSU College of Music! (@musicfsu)
Yesterday, our Clubhouse was turned into a Concert Hall by some of our incredible community musicians. The Day of Community Music was created to prioritize sustainable connections while giving back, and we could not be prouder that Independence Landing was chosen as a place to perform.
Weโre so grateful for this opportunity to teach our residents just what an impact music can have on their lives and how it can help them strengthen their community.
We canโt wait to have you back again next year! ๐ถ๐ซถ
