The Adopt-A-Competitor initiative invites the public hear live performances and learn more about their personal journeys as pianists and performers, their cultural influences and more in Q&A sessions following the performances.
As a destination for discovery, your Fort Worth Public Library celebrates art in all forms. We designed this program for music lovers of all ages to enjoy.
First held in 1962, the quadrennial Van Cliburn International Piano Competition quickly established itself as an event that inspires and engages the local community, while gracing the international stage. The Cliburn Competition is one of the few musical events in the world to arrange for competitors to stay with host families, often resulting in close, long-term relationships: this has resulted in southern hospitality becoming a singular trademark of the Cliburn Competition.
