The Sunday afternoon event at Colonial Brookwood Village bene
fits The Foundry’s recovery, re-entry and rescue programs and services.
“We’re pleased to be able to bring this fantastic afternoon of music and fellowship to our area once again. More than 2,500 people attended our inaugural event at Sloss Furnaces, and the feedback was tremendously positive because of the quality of the performers and the family-friendly, alcohol-free atmosphere. We’re expecting a great turnout in our new location at Colonial Brookwood Village. Join us for great day of family friendly fellowship that benefits our ministry. ”

"Hot Strings, now in its 4th year, is about music, art, food, fun, family, friends, and it all benefits The Foundry. As a musician, music lover, and resident of Birmingham, I am thrilled to see a world-class music festival back in Birmingham that is bringing in the level of entertainers showcased this October. You will hear a variety of styles from traditional bluegrass, newgrass, country, Americana, folk, blues, jazz, rock, and gospel all performed by some of the finest musicians you will hear anywhere. I assure you, if you like live music, no matter what kind, you will love Hot Strings! Please come, listen, enjoy, and support live music and The Foundry! Also consider sponsoring Hot Strings...packages are still available with group tickets, and offer great exposure and branding for your company." Brent Warren
