🎶🇺🇸 Play for the Vote Comes to Livingston for the FIRST Time! 🇺🇸🎶

This afternoon, a special Election Day event will bring live music to Livingston as part of the national Play for the Vote initiative, which aims to “amplify voter turnout through the power of music.” This event was inspired by Pipa soloist Yang Jin, who introduced the idea to the Livingston Chinese Association (LCA). With LCA’s coordination and the support of Councilman Michael Vieira, the event will take place from 3:00 to 4:30 PM on the grass field near Civic Road, in front of the Gazebo and close to South Livingston Avenue. The ensemble’s performance will create a welcoming atmosphere for voters and encourage community participation.

📅 Event Details:

📍 Location: Grass field near Civic Road, in front of the Gazebo, close to South Livingston Ave

🕒 Time: 3:00 to 4:30 PM

🎻 Performers: Yang Jin & the Flying String Youth Ensemble, playing traditional Chinese instruments like the Pipa and Guzheng

🎨 Special Touch: Many of the young musicians have made their own handmade signs to support Play for the Vote

This is the first time Play for the Vote will be celebrated in Livingston, inviting our community to join in celebrating democracy with joy and unity through the power of music. For more on this inspiring initiative, visit www.playforthevote.org.

Let’s come together to make voting a celebration! 🗳️🎉
