♦ The 32nd annual Cape May Music Festival begins 5:30 p.m. tomorrow, Thursday, May 13, with a free virtual concert prerecorded and presented by Cape May MAC, the New York Chamber Ensemble and the Bay Atlantic Symphony. A live Q&A will follow the performance.
The Local Colors Festival, somewhat scaled down but with food vendors present, resume in-person festivities on May 15.
The Local Colors Festival, a prized Roanoke tradition that celebrates the valleyâs cultural diversity, will take place in person May 15 at Riverâs Edge Park North.
The free event will celebrate 30 years of showcasing Roanokeâs immigrant heritage. The very first festival, called Local Color, took place in 1991 and featured four countries. In the years that followed, under the leadership of Pearl Fu, Local Colors grew to an immense annual gathering that represents more than 50 nationalities and regularly attracts more than 20,000 people.

“We realized we we’re going to need to put the sound system into use,” Buck said. “And so we were talking about mics, and having to look at rentals, because we didn’t have enough. Then we realized because they have to put masks on backstage to be safe when they’re not on stage, we were going to have a lot of noise interference if their mics were on their cheeks because the masks were going to be going on and off.”
And so we decided we have to put them in their hairline, which, of course, means – you can’t touch your face, you can’t touch your face, you can’t gesture near your head, because we get that excess noise.”
