Call for Volunteers!

The Magnolia Park Summer Music Series has received a grant from ACAC for 2022.

If you are interested in helping to organize, we are having a zoom call at 8PM this Tuesday, January 18.

Please leave a comment here and I can send you the details. If you can’t attend but want to be part of the effort, just let me know and I will add you to the volunteer email list.

Even a small time commitment over the next several months will help make this year’s series even better!

The Summer Music Series 2021 wrapped up yesterday with a lively performance by Dirty Water Brass Band. Thank you to the band and all who attended!

Thanks also to John Dalton and the Pillars of Society, Jeff Jam, and the Gruvmeiners, who brought wonderful music to the park over the last several weeks.

If you enjoyed the Summer Music Series… planning for next year will start soon! Please fill out our survey at: www.shorturl.at/txHW0

Results of the survey will be used to shape future programming and support applications for funding!

The survey also asks if you’d be interested in joining the planning team for next year. We’ll need help applying for funding, getting permits, recruiting and selecting bands and publicizingbthe events. Even just a few hours of help over the next year would go a long way to making the 2022 series even better.
