The Friends of the Eastern Connecticut Symphony are sponsoring a bus trip to the Steinway Piano Factory in Long Island City on Wednesday, May 7. There are a few seats left on the van from Joshua's Limousine Service, which will leave New London Shopping Plaza's Staples parking lot at 6 a.m. and return at about 4 p.m. with a meal stop in Astoria on the way back to New London. The tour runs between two and three hours.

The cost of $100 includes transportation. Breakfast snacks (muffins, donuts) will be provided on the trip down, and bottled water will be available throughout. No children younger than 16 years old.
