Musicians of the Fort Worth Symphony Orchestra will perform inside the main entryway of Central Market in Fort Worth from noon – 4:30 p.m. on Sunday, March 29. They will be collecting non-perishable food items for the Tarrant Area Food Bank during the afternoon and hope their performances will inspire shoppers to purchase extra items to donate. No amount of food is too big or too small. All community residents are invited to stop by, enjoy the music and make a donation of food items.
