Concert on the Corner: Turn Up the Music!

This fundraiser is organized by Christ Presbyterian Church in Terra Linda (Christ Presbyterian Church).

Tax deductible

FUNDRAISING GOAL

Equip volunteer sound techs with sound systems and amplification to ensure a quality experience for both musicians and audiences.

After hosting the first Concert on the Corner in July 2023 that featured local musicians from the Marin Music Jam, individual musicians and bands excitedly asked to play at CPC (Christ Presbyterian Church). Within a week of the initial event, CPC scheduled two more Concerts on the Corner for October and November.

The community energy to create these events and support local musicians is palpable! CPC wants to use the grounds and accessible facilities to increase community access to music through Concerts on the Corner.

SOUNDSYSTEM AND AMPLIFICATION

We need it all, down to the 10' power strips. After a visit to local music store Bananas at Large, we are ready to invest in a number of Yamaha and Pig Hog products to ensure quality sound and amplification for the musicians and audiences.

2022-2023 CONCERTS AT CPC

CPC is brimming with live music! CPC hosts a variety of musical events throughout the year, including:

The Kyle Athayde Dance Party, a 20-person bi-coastal big band that frequently performs at Dizzy’s Club at Lincoln Center, NYC
Marin School of the Arts Jazz Band and Vocal Group
Fulbright Scholar and Professor Nishaant Singh on the Pakhawaj, Singh is the “torchbearer” for this ancient drum
Miller Creek Middle School Jazz Ensemble
Kyle Athayde, vibraphone, and Parker Grant, piano, performing “Crystal Silence” following their SFJazz performance
Soloists from SF Opera and City Opera
Local musicians from Terra Linda

All of these performances took place indoors, help us expand outdoors with Concerts on the Corner!

ABOUT CPC

Religious institutions need to change to support the needs of the community. Christ Presbyterian Church is responding. CPC is a safe and welcoming community hub that is active beyond Sunday mornings. Our mission is to gather people into caring community relationships.

All community events are free and non-religious.
