The Columbia Community Band will perform Sunday from 5-7 pm in Shelter’s Concert in the Gardens at Shelter headquarters on West Broadway. COVID has caused a five-year hiatus. Shelter expects Sunday’s performance to attract hundreds of music lovers, and they’re encouraged to bring lawn chairs or blankets.

The event is free and open to the public.
