Little Mountain Boys come to Bower Center - November 30

To whet the appetite of Bedford's love of Bluegrass music, The Little Mountain Boys have been invited back to Bower Center for another concert.

The Little Mountain Boys are a group of individuals who play a wide range of music, ranging from bluegrass, country and gospel. Some of the music they grew up with and some they composed.

On Second Friday, December 13 at PM there will be a special free holiday concert - The Roanoke Chamber Brass. This is another return performance!

Festival of Trees at Bedford Welcome Center

Bower Center's tree is up!!! 

Executive Director Sara Braaten took the Center's student intern Angelique to help set up and decorate the tree.

During Second Friday activities and after school classes area students and young children helped make the red and white ornaments that have been hung. Be sure to go visit the Bedford Welcome Center (Rtes 460/122) to see Bower Center's tree and all the others that make up the 2013 festival of Trees.
