If you fall into either of these categories and would be willing to talk to one of our reporters to get featured, please contact our editorial department (email found online) and we will get you in contact with said reporter.

Hey everyone! Please read & share.

We love our venue SO MUCH and are ecstatic to bring you these free live music every week during the summer!

However, we cannot maintain this concert series if our bins get contaminated and don't follow our new protocols that we have to adhere to.

Please be considerate of our venue & volunteers so we can continue to enjoy this fun & free event!
