Schedule of Events
“LIVE” MUSIC:
While venues remain closed for the foreseeable future almost every musician in town is livestreaming regularly from their facebook page. Look up your favorite and catch their next show. Or, if you've been out of the loop on the local music scene now is a great time to see what you've been missing from the best seat in the house.
CAPA's ApARTTogether series featured a roundup of some of the city's most loved musicians with performance from Angela Perley, Jesse Henry and Worthington's own Matt Munhall.
