From BUZZ Live! on January 15, 2026 …
In partnership with Center in the Square, BUZZ Live! is back January 2026 at the Waldron Stage on Church Avenue in downtown Roanoke! This show features:
- Roanoke Pinball Museum’s Nic Schell

Called “The Tonight Show for Nonprofits!” BUZZ Live! is held before a live studio audience and live-streamed to our Facebook and YouTube channels and later broadcast on Blue Ridge PBS. In each show, BUZZ creator Michael Hemphill chats with the inspiring people who serve, and are served by, the arts and cultural organizations supported by Center in the Square. We’ll also feature a musical guest affiliated with one of these nonprofits!
