The site includes the centuries-old Columbus Chapel from Spain imported to Boalsburg 100 years ago by Colonel Theodore Davis Boal whose wife was a descendant of Christopher Columbus.

In addition, Max Zorin (violin) will perform the acclaimed work Meditation by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky with internationally renowned pianist and winner of the 10th Concours International de Piano d’Orléans Christopher Guzman. Also performing will be David Stambler (saxophone) and Kristin Stephenson will perform a solo work for piano.
