CLEVELAND — The Rock & Roll Hall of Fame in Cleveland will receive $4.1 million over five years to help expand its youth education programs and community activities.<\/p>\n
The Rock Hall announced this week that PNC Bank has pledged $3.75 million to support free events, interactive exhibit storytelling and live music. The PNC Foundation pledged another $375,000 to help underwrite the youth education program Toddler Rock.<\/p>\n
“There’s no limit to what can be accomplished when the power of rock and roll is combined with education,” Greg Harris, the Rock Hall’s CEO, said in a statement.<\/p>\n
Paul Clark, regional president of PNC Bank, Cleveland, said music has the power to transcend boundaries of age, time and background, WKYC-TV reported.<\/p>\n
“That power can be transformed into an educational and entertainment conductor that will bring the community together to create a stronger, more vibrant region,” Clark said.<\/p>\n
The Plain Dealer in Cleveland reported the Rock Hall also is partnering with others to bring a music festival downtown this summer.<\/p>\n
The inaugural InCuya festival on Aug. 25-26 will be presented by concert promoter AEG Presents in partnership with the Rock Hall, the city of Cleveland and Destination Cleveland. The cross-genre and multigenerational festival will feature national and local musicians. The full lineup and ticket prices for the festival have not been announced.<\/p>\n
PNC’s partnership with the Rock Hall will officially kick off on April 7 with the hall hosting Celebration Day Powered by PNC. That event will mark the beginning of a week of celebrations leading up to this year’s Hall of Fame induction ceremony on April 14 in Cleveland.<\/p>\n
The April 7 event will feature activities including fireworks and a live performance headlined by 2018 Hall of Fame inductee Richie Sambora and Australia’s Orianthi, according to the Rock Hall.<\/p>\n
City officials recently unveiled a study that showed nearly 570,000 visitors came to the Rock Hall in 2017.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
