Central Library Concert Series, Winter/Spring 2009
The Central Library is pleased to announce the schedule for the Winter/Spring season of its annual concert series. The series is made possible by public and private donations, and by the San Diego Public Library matching fund program. The concerts are very important to the musicians in the series because they provide a venue for them to perform locally. The community has responded enthusiastically as well, as shown by steadily growing attendance by musicians, music lovers, music appreciation students and San Diego residents. During the 2007-2008 series alone, over 1,100 people attended the concert series.
