Equity
 Arc presents a powerful afternoon of classical music showcasing 
exceptional pre-college and collegiate musicians of color from over 80 
U.S. cities. This inspiring concert highlights the next generation of 
talent through dynamic works by composers like Tchaikovsky, Florence 
Price, Jessie Montgomery, and more.&nbsp;
This concert comes almost 
exactly one year to the date (May 4, 2025) when Equity Arc’s Wind 
Symphony was supposed to perform alongside the U.S. Marine Band “The 
President’s Own”(USMB), but was cancelled due to President Trump’s 
executive order entitled “Ending Radical and Wasteful DEI Programs and 
Preferencing.” The story got national attention and was featured on <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E48GgDX2NCA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">CBS's 60 Minutes with Scott Peley</a>&nbsp;when,
 in the wake of the cancellation, Equity Arc contacted retired members 
of the premier military and military academy bands to recreate both the 
mentoring and performing experiences&nbsp;in Washington, DC previously 
scheduled for the students.&nbsp;That concert was closed to the public, but 
this one is wide-open with subsidized tickets at only $7 when you 
purchase at the door! Join us!

Saving Lives is a tribute to the “life savers” during the Vietnam War: the Medics, Corpsmen, Nurses, Doctors, and Dustoff Crews. The stories told are “in their own words,”. Their stories of bravery, sacrifice and dedication will never be forgotten. Medics and Corpsmen on the battlefields of Vietnam were focused mainly on treatment and evacuation for wounded or injured troops. They resuscitated, stopped bleeding, managed pain, and whatever else was necessary to keep troops alive until they could be evacuated. The work of nurses in Vietnam took place in field hospitals, surgical, mobile and hospital ships and aboard helicopters and planes. The average age of a nurse in Vietnam was 23 years old. Evening Performances @ 7:30 pmMay 8th, 15th, 16th, 22nd and 23rdMatinee Performances @ 2:00 pmMay 9th, 15th, 23rd, 24th Tickets are available at the door and:<a href="https://castawaystheatre.ludus.com/?fbclid=IwZXh0bgNhZW0CMTAAYnJpZBExQnRGWWUwQkxWMzFpZzEyNnNydGMGYXBwX2lkEDIyMjAzOTE3ODgyMDA4OTIAAR4Os-TD7Laz4IicQ6Pa8QLnnF45HyIByPmToxdqtOH4I5xrDFRUX202rcZXkA_aem_P_CeJbL6-OKZMWpYPCJWoA" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">castawaystheatre.ludus.com</a>

Ellanor C. Lawrence Park

It’s a dog day afternoon in Northern Virginia as the beloved Park and Bark festival returns for its fourth year on Saturday, May 9, 2026, from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Ellanor C. Lawrence Park. Hosted by the Ellanor C. Lawrence Park Friends, this free, family-friendly event invites the community to enjoy an afternoon of hot dogs, Lazy Dog, adoptable dogs, music, and plenty of family-friendly tail-wagging fun — all in support of the park.
The event will take place on the lawn outside the Walney Visitor Center (5040 Walney Road) and feature attractions for attendees and their canine companions, including:
<ul><li>Craft brews from Lazy Dog Restaurant</li><li>Delicious food, including gourmet sausages and dogs from Kaziville hot dog truck</li><li>Dog-themed vendors along with local crafters, makers and bakers&nbsp;</li><li>Adoptable dogs from A Forever Home Rescue Foundation</li><li>On-site mobile dog grooming services</li><li>Live music from Lucas Mason</li><li>Kids activities led by ECLP park staff</li></ul>
“Park and Bark turns the lawn into a (leashed!) dog run full of festival fun. It brings the community together – friends, family, neighbors, local vendors, and of course animal lovers, all in support of our park,” said Jennifer Grinnell, president of ECLP Friends. “Come, sit and stay for a while with your dog, while raising awareness and support for environmental education and park programs.”
The Walney Visitor Center will also be open for event-goers to explore throughout the day. Set in a beautifully restored 18th-century farmhouse and surrounding grounds, visitors can discover the natural and cultural history of this 650-acre park, view live reptiles and amphibians, enjoy hands-on activities for children and explore preserved historic structures.

Free parking for Park and Bark is available at the Visitor Center, with additional parking and walking access from Walney Pond and The Woodlands Stewardship Education Center via marked park trails. Attendees are encouraged to walk to the event when possible — something their dogs will surely appreciate.

The Ellanor C. Lawrence Park Friends is a nonprofit dedicated to supporting the park through programs, events, fundraising, and community engagement. Signature initiatives include Park &amp; Bark, ParktoberFest, and the Friends Field Trip Scholarship Program, which expands access to outdoor learning experiences for local students.
