Free Music at ArtsQuest

For more than a quarter-century, ArtsQuest has dedicated itself to providing the residents of the region and beyond with dynamic festivals, concerts and music and art experiences, the majority of them absolutely free to attend. Along the way, an integral component of that mission has always been to showcase the exceptional musicians, singers and performers found right here in our own back yard, providing these artists with opportunities to not only share their talents with others, but also support their livelihood as well.

Musikfest

We have not announced the 2012 lineup yet, but you can visit www.musikfest.org later in the year to see the full lineup.

ArtsQuest Center

The ArtsQuest Center is home to over 200 free musical performances on the TD Bank Community Stage either at the Air Products Town Square or the Capital BlueCross Creativity Commons.
