Enjoy a little library music. 📚🥰🎶 Arlington Community Chorus (a program of Arlington Community Learning) brought a surprise choral treat to Central Library this week. The chorus of 60 quietly circled the lobby staircase before gamely sharing a pair of short songs with our community in a space they’d never rehearsed in before! Heard here is “Siyahamba,” a South African hymn. Footage courtesy of Arlington Community Chorus. | Arlington VA Public Library
