Fifteen-year-old A.J. Dotson played a brief private concert at a nearly empty Alum Creek Park Amphitheater on Sunday night. His family had gathered there for a pizza party to celebrate his birthday following the scheduled performance by the Westerville Jazz Orchestra. When the concert was cancelled due to extreme heat, A.J., a jazz fan who had brought his French horn along, took the opportunity to take the stage himself. My Final Photo for June 22, 2025.
