ELLINGTON – The Ellington Farman Library will host a performance by Gladius at 6 p.m. Tuesday, June 2, in the Ellington Town Park.

Raised in Atlanta, Georgia, pupiled by Andrés Segovia’s protégé, and driven to obsession by Eddie Van Halen, Gladius is an award-winning composer and classical/flamenco style guitarist. He has shared the bill with Grammy winners and been performing across the country since 2016. With roots tracing back to South America, Gladius began his musical journey at age 10 with an antique Argentine guitar.

In case of rain the concert will be held inside the Ellington Farman Library located directly across the street from the park. There is no charge to attend. Call the library for more information at 716-287-2945 or visit the library’s Facebook page or website at ellingtonlibrary.org.
