Harpers Ferry is a historic West Virginia city and international tourist hub. But four years ago the national park and surrounding town were devastated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
Two Mountain Stage events scheduled for May have been canceled to comply with CDC guidelines regarding public gatherings. Refund details are below. We will work to reschedule each of the artists as soon as possible.
Tickets to May 10 purchased through Eventbrite will be automatically refunded. Please allow up to 7 business days for the refund to be credited to the account used to purchase tickets. Our local box office Taylor Books has closed as a COVID-19 prevention measure, therefore refunds for tickets purchased at that location cannot be offered at this time. If you purchased your tickets at Taylor Books, or directly from Mountain Stage staff at a live event, please send a photo of the tickets (including the full barcode), along with your mailing address, to live@mountainstage.org. We will send a gift certificate via U.S. Mail in the coming weeks, for an amount equivalent to the tickets purchased.
Refunds for Mountain Stage scheduled for May 17 are available via the Clay Center. We are working to reschedule a date with Saving Grace feat. Robert Plant & Suzi Dian. In the interim you may choose to hold your tickets, which will be honored on the new date, or to request a refund. If you request a refund before the rescheduled date is announced, your ticket cannot be redeemed for the new date.
Please call the Clay Center box office at 304-561-3570 to request a refund, or with any questions.
*Note – In person inquiries are currently unavailable due to temporary closure at The Clay Center. Please call the box office Monday – Friday between 9:00a.m. -4:00p.m. with questions and/or ticket inquiries.
Please stay tuned to Mountain Stage on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter for updates and fresh musical content, and be sure to listen for Mountain Stage each week on one of these NPR stations.
Harpers Ferry is a historic West Virginia city and international tourist hub. But four years ago the national park and surrounding town were devastated by the COVID-19 pandemic.
On this West Virginia Morning, tourists from around the world visit Harpers Ferry each year to immerse themselves in U.S. history. But the number of visitors fell in 2020, as public health restrictions ramped up nationwide. Jack Walker visited the town to learn how things have changed since the COVID-19 pandemic began.
Four years ago, the COVID-19 pandemic changed daily life for everyone, but the adjustments were perhaps most acute for schools and students. We hear about the adapting learning for the COVID-19 pandemic - and its continued effects on the state's schools.
On this West Virginia Morning, political analysts say the two Republican candidates for the U.S. Senate in the upcoming May primary election give voters some particular, and troubling, food for thought. The candidates themselves say voters need to focus on the positives, not the negatives.
