Random Acts Of Culture 2010


From late November through early December, the Akron Symphony planned and performed 59 Random Acts of Culture throughout Akron and Canton as part of an eight-city initiative by the John S. and James L. Knight Foundation to bring “classical artists out of the performance halls and into the streets and our everyday lives.”
