The second annual 'The Very Merry Musical Market' is Wednesday evening. Virginia Symphony Orchestra musicians will play while patrons try seasonal brews and browse vendors set up at the brewery.

The Virginia Symphony Orchestra and Elation Brewery are hosting 'A Very Merry Musical Market' Wednesday, Nov. 19. The program allows people to enjoy classical music in a nontraditional setting while supporting local businesses.

The Virginia Symphony Orchestra, in partnership with Elation Brewing, will hold the second annual “A Very Merry Musical Market” on Wednesday, Nov. 19. The event brings local vendors to set up shop at Elation, which will be serving seasonal and classic brews while a brass ensemble plays.

The event is part of VSO’s SoundBridge series, which reimagines how the public can listen to orchestral music in nontraditional venues.

This year's vendors include Parti Pups LLC, Coastal Virginia Weavers, WUBYS WINGS, Miss Wonderland’s Curiosities, Salt Bong Permanent Jewelry, SevenFlowers Boutique, Gaia’s Dreamwork Jewelry & Art and Salty Sun Club.
