Wells Fargo to celebrate
community, culture
Event on Oct. 29 features free museum
admission, performances
Fall A&E Guide
Wells Fargo is getting ready to make its
grand entrance into the Charlotte market.
Though a past sponsor of Pride Charlotte, you
didn't see Wachovia's name anywhere at the
Aug. 27 event in Uptown. Wells Fargo, it seems,
is here to stay. But,
that isn't a bad thing.
The new kid on
the block is introduc
ing itself in various
ways. On Oct. 29,
the bank will help to
present the Wells -
Fargo Community
Celebration, marking
the conversion of
Wachovia signs and
banking locations to
Wells Fargo in North
Carolina, as well as
the opening of the
Wells Fargo History
Museum in Charlotte.
The event will transform Center City Charlotte
into a free arts and cultural festival, as well as
provide free Saturday admis
sion, underwritten by Wells
Fargo,to many of Charlotte-
Mecklenburg's arts, science and
history institutions.
"We are excited about Wells
Fargo taking the lead on this
important celebration and being
one of their partners," said Arts & Science
Council President Scott Provancher. "The
Wells Fargo Community Celebration shows
their commitment to the cultural sector and
WELLS
FARGO
W\.CHOVTA
will provide amazing arts, science and history
experiences that will entertain and educate
thousands of individuals," said Provancher.
"Plus, with the opening of the Wells Fargo
History Museum, Charlotte's 'cultural mile'
along Tryon Street
has gained another
attraction."
TJie celebration's

include free Saturday
admission on Oct. 29
to Bechtler Museum
of Modern Art,
Discovery Place,
