I have a sneaky feeling some concerts this year may sell out before we even get to the single ticket release dates.\u00a0So, if you can plan ahead and find at least three concerts, your chances increase of getting a seat and certainly getting a choice seat.<\/p>\n<p>The five Community Concert attractions were already announced and have been selling for a few couple weeks.\u00a0 That series of five outstanding concerts is still available and is very affordable.\u00a0Check with our box office (419.238.1743) or website (<a href=\"http:\/\/www.npacvw.org\/\">www.npacvw.org<\/a>) to order and get details.<\/p>\n<p>It is an exciting time as we also are planning the beginning to our Fountain Park Summer Music concerts.\u00a0We are less than two weeks away from the opening concert on June 5 with Ambrosia.\u00a0The concert begins at 7 p.m. in Fountain Park in downtown Van Wert, but there will be many other activities associated with our concert throughout the day as it is the Peony and ArtRageous Festivals weekend too.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s time to start praying for nice weather on the weekends in particular.\u00a0 I hope you all had a nice Memorial weekend.\u00a0Thank you to all who gave their lives for us.\u00a0They may now be singing with the heavenly hosts!<\/p>\n<p>I will be on vacation next week, visiting my daughter in San Francisco, so I won\u2019t be seeing you next week most likely.\u00a0But when we return, it\u2019s full speed ahead for \u201cMusic in Van Wert!\u201d<\/p>\n<p>FIN\u00c9.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>After nearly seven months of meeting, discussing, planning and eventually agreeing with agents and performers, we have a full season ready to be announced to the public.\u00a0 It will happen on June 10 in the First Federal Lecture Hall of the Niswonger Performing Arts Center in Van Wert.\u00a0 A noon luncheon will be followed by [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-64263","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-news"],"publishpress_future_action":{"enabled":false,"date":"2026-05-02 08:13:34","action":"change-status","newStatus":"draft","terms":[],"taxonomy":"category","extraData":[]},"publishpress_future_workflow_manual_trigger":{"enabledWorkflows":[]},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64263","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=64263"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/64263\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=64263"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=64263"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/thevwindependent.com\/news\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=64263"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
