Bellevue Porchella
"The measures were just right taken for showcasing neighborhood talent. This what living this neighborhood is all about!"
"Looks like so much fun! What wonderful way to celebrate your neighborhood!"
"Memories; I moved to 1411 Avondale Ave in Richmond, VA in 1953 for six years enjoying living on the edge of this neighborhood. I do not recall such celebrations as this however. Looks like fun."

Music in the time of the Coronavirus: Bellevue Porchella with Brooke Ullman
From a Grain of Sand: Music in the time of the Coronavirus: Bellevue Porchella with Brooke Ullman.
COVID-19 cancelled Richmond's premier music event--the Richmond Folk Festival, which annually attracts a couple hundred thousand people to three days of music. They had a virtual festival, but it wasn't the same. Brooke Ullman from Richmond's Northside created a full afternoon of music performed on porches throughout the neighborhood of Bellevue. "A mini-folk festival", as my son put it.
