Festival For Change

SEPTEMBER 8 & 9
FESTIVAL FOR CHANGE
SPENCER PENN CENTER
475 SPENCER PENN RD.
SPENCER, VA 24165
$10 Day Pass - Arm band issued so you can come and go all day as you choose but hope you stick around for as much of the festivities as possible to support all the artists. Children 12 and under get in for free when accompanied by an adult 18 or over.

We have worked hard to make this a family fun event with a variety of different styles of music and good clean comedy. We are raising money for cancer research and the Henry & Patrick Counties domestic violence shelters.

Emcees for the weekend, Comedian Shelly Ryan, Comedian Wes Duncan, Comedian Michael Scott
