    Saturday, July 2
    7:30pm
    Hendersonville Performing Arts Company (HPAC)
    260 W Main St, Hendersonville

    Join HPAC for this PG, family-friendly event! This group is made up of improvisers who have trained and performed improv comedy all over the world.

    What’s improv? It means that every part of the show is completely made up on the spot and based off of suggestions by the audience. Every word, sentence, and scene is unique and will never be performed again. Including the music and songs! Bring your family, friends, and neighbors and most importantly – be ready to laugh until you cry!
    If you came to the show last month, the great news is – every show is completely different!

    Country Music Hall of Fame
    222 Rep. John Lewis Way S, Nashville

    The Country Music Hall of Fame® and Museum unveiled a Tom Petty display highlighting how his southern roots shaped his music and his continued influence on new generations of country music artists. Tom Petty: Where I Come From features several western-themed artifacts from Petty’s wide-ranging and generation-defining career. The display is included with museum admission and runs through summer 2025.

    Rock & Roll Hall of Fame member Petty believed his music straddled the American South, where he grew up, and Southern California, where he resided from 1974 until his death in 2017. Petty cited country-rock bands the Byrds, Buffalo Springfield and other Los Angeles-based groups as major inspirations for his music. Petty’s exhibit display supplements the museum’s current major exhibition, Western Edge: The Roots and Reverberations of Los Angeles Country-Rock, presented by City National Bank.
