My mom just called me - she has gone very early to make sure she gets to see Syesha at the Ringling Museum this afternoon
The John and Mable Ringling Museum of Art-Sarasota-Bradenton-Tampa-Florida
She performs at 3:30 eastern - My mom said that there has already been a parade for Syesha and then she is to be at her high school and then they are flying her to Ringling by helicopter and then tonight, Syesha will go up to Tampa and sing the National Anthem before the baseball game
Here's an early story about her day

I think, her high school is in Bradenton - so I don't know if she lived in that town/suburb outside Sarasota or if she just chose to go there because it was such an arts school.
My mom says that all of Sarasota is so excited because the city hopes that the beauty of the area is shown off for all to see on national TV
