This is a group for creatives in all arts disciplines in the Ashland, Virginia area to find each other for potential collaboration. I believe that Ashland has a lot of "arts" professionals and hobbyists who live under the radar, and are looking for significant change in attitudes about arts both locally and nationally.

Hello all music lovers. I was in a marching band (snare and bass) years ago, however I had to stop playing because I was on the football team. I recently came across some real cool marching and drumline videos and felt it would be really fun to be apart of something like that again. I may be a little rusty after almost 20 something years away, but I imagine it wouldn't take it long to come back. If you like the idea, let discuss it. Where is it written that only high school and college students …
