Join your fellow VCU and MCV Campus alumni for a summer evening of world-class music under the stars! VCU/MCV are joining with other colleges to be part of College Alumni Night at the Shenendoah Valley Music Festical. The concert for the evening will be performed by Jackie Evancho, who wowed the nation when she was a finalist on “America’s Got Talent” at age 10. Now established as a force within the classical crossover genre, Jackie will be performing selections from her new album “Awakening” at the Festival on July 25. Her concert starts at 8 p.m. We hope you and your family will be part of this fun evening!
