F Scott Fitzgerald Theatre — Attraction in Rockville

Great place for Civic meetings. Great time in prayer this morning at The Montgomery County Prayer Breakfast, paying for our nation & community- for our families, parents, students, our teachers, our government leaders, our public servants, our first responders, and our veterans - for our day-to-day workers, our business leaders, for our poor, vulnerabal and oppressed.

I played here with the Asian Cultural Symphony for a Mother's Day concert.

The venue is small and in a neighborhood in Rockville, MD. There is a drop off area, but if you park around back, it is not extremely handicap accessible.
