The program is part of We Want More History!, a coordinated, national celebration of history programming designed to strengthen civic health, build community trust, foster democratic dialogue, and showcase the essential role of history in public life. At a time of heightened public interest in how American history is interpreted, this program supports trusted public institutions where people already gather to learn, reflect, and engage. Timed to coincide with National Public Lands Day, We Want More History! will feature libraries, parks, museums, historic sites, schools, and community organizations across the country hosting talks, exhibits, walking tours, community conversations, film screenings, storytelling events, hikes, paddles, and other programs that connect people with the stories of the places they call home.
Community members of all ages are encouraged to attend. The event is free of charge; donations/tips are accepted.

This program is built on connection—between voices, traditions, and time.
Zhou Tian’s Threads opens the evening with music that feels intricate and alive, constantly shifting and evolving. Tchaikovsky’s First Piano Concerto follows, bold and unmistakable from its first moments, with Ying Li bringing both power and nuance to the solo line. Dvořák’s Seventh Symphony closes the night with a darker, more urgent energy. Under Yue Bao’s direction, the throughline is clear: music that carries weight and keeps moving forward.

Featuring Patrick Johnson on piano, Ji Hyun Kim on violin, and Stefan Koch on cello.
