The Moonrise Concert Series is a family-friendly series of FREE concerts featuring amazing local talent and diverse musical genres.

Dust City Opera’s music features “unique instrumentation, vibrant covers, and crafty songwriting, often juxtaposing dark, bold subject matter over whimsical, light-hearted melodies.” (https://dustcityopera.com)
