STOCKTON  – The Gleason Park Electric Violin Ensemble returns to The Haggin Museum on Saturday, Aug. 1, at 2 p.m.

 The Gleason Park Electric Violin Ensemble (GPEVE ) is excited to return for another family friendly concert at the Haggin.

Students who live in the Gleason Park neighborhood have the opportunity to play the electric violin and be part of an ensemble that performs at public events throughout the year.

Their motto is “violins not violence.”
