Tiny Studio Concert Series
Studio 206, Brannon Building
WVSDB Campus, Romney
Why “Tiny Studio”?
The Tiny Studio Concert Series is intentionally personal and close-up — a chance to hear talented musicians in a welcoming studio setting rather than a large concert hall.
These small-format performances allow audiences to experience live music up close, hear the stories behind the music and connect with performers in a relaxed setting. Tiny Studio Concerts are created by Elizabeth Podsiadlo and sponsored by the Hampshire County Arts Council.
