During Sunday’s music festival, performers will take to the outdoor stage at Jimmy’s Old Town Tavern in Herndon to raise funds for a local literacy program.
The event, “Turn Up the Volumes,” is set for Sunday (June 9) from 12 p.m. to 6 p.m. at the tavern, which is located at 697 Spring Street in Herndon.
The festival is a fundraiser for the Rotary Club of Herndon’s Imagination Library program.
In the program, members mail a book each month to children in Herndon from their birth to age 5.
Since the initiative began in 2005, the club has mailed more than 100,000 books to children.
The event, which features Big Whitson, Catchin’ Toads, Bald Chicken Brown, and Acoustic Mutiny, is free and open to all.
