Near-Perfect Weather for Downtown Block Party at Reg Lenna

The Reg Lenna’s new digital marquee will be on display at the free Community Block Party happening Friday, Oct. 20.

JAMESTOWN – Reg Lenna Center for The Arts will kick off its 2017-18 season tonight with a sold-out performance by Billboard-charting crossover band Black Violin, who will make their first appearance in Western New York right here in Jamestown.

Prior to the concert the Reg is hosting a block party in front of its entrance on Third Street between 4 and 7 p.m. for the general public.

An outdoor stage across from the theater entrance will feature string musicians from the region performing live. There will also be Food trucks, Reg merchandise, refreshments, a musical instrument Petting Zoo and Reg Lenna Plinko.

Attendees will also have the opportunity to see the Reg Lenna’s new digital marquee, which was installed earlier this week using proceeds from a fund set up from the sale of a building the Reg Civic Center used to own.

The block party continues until 7 p.m., when the sold out Black Violin concert takes place inside the Reg.
