Six Strings for Freedom Country Concert

Danelle Brown Writer

On June 17, 2023, Richard and I headed over to Hanford, to pick up my cousin Antonia, for her first concert for Six Strings for Freedom. It had been a busy day with a fundraiser taking place that morning, and now we were heading out to have some fun. It had gotten warmer, but it didn’t matter there was still a breeze, and we knew by the time the sun was going down it would get cooler. It was around 6pm when we arrived at the Riverdale Rodeo grounds, where Six Strings for Freedom, has been holding the concerts for the last few months. I especially love it there you have a lot more room to walk around and more sitting places if you like to sit down. Or just walk around and enjoy the space to listen in the grass area.

When we got there Richard showed our tickets to get in. The first thing we saw was some awesome wooden art made by a guy that uses old wood from fences, or wood that no one would use, to be thrown away, it was all craps of wood. He would make it new again, into painted board American Flags. Every one of his arts you can tell was put with his true love into making these wooden American flags, you can tell in how nice they were put together with all different sizes of old wood to make for wooden flags, are freedom, he also had some that had tributing for war heroes. His cousin was there, and a friend was there to help him to sell and show off his work. I just had to take a picture due to the cause of the fundraiser Six Strings for Freedom were putting on this day. It was for The Wingman Foundation. I had to take a picture in front with the artist and with Richard and behind was a big American flag the man had done.
