The Young Leadership Council's Wednesday at the Square concert series returns to downtown New Orleans. The concerts are held in Lafayette Square on St. Charles Avenue across from Gallier Hall every Wednesday from March 24 to June 9, 2010, from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m., rain or shine.

This year YLC Wednesday at the Square will partner with WWOZ-FM for three live broadcasts. Stay tuned to our Live Broadcast page for details. "We're so excited to partner with the king of live, local music - WWOZ," says Amy Boyle Collins, executive director of the Young Leadership Council.

There will also be a WWOZ outreach booth in Lafayette Square during the concerts on May 12 and May 19. You'll be able to sign up as a volunteer, pick up some 'OZ gear, become a member (at any level, including Brass Pass), and find out more about the station!
