Description

Ever wanted to parlay your musical skills into being a street performer? Always wondered what it would be like to be a "busker" for a day?

As part of our mission to activate public spaces downtown, we are looking for individuals who would like to donate their time to play an instrument for an hour or three at a downtown park.

This initiative is a way to bring community together and engage with others, while energizing a park with activity and fun. Young, old or in-between are invited to participate. You pick the day and the time... even an hour is welcome, but 2-4 hours is preferred.

You don't need to be "world-class"... as long as you love playing you're exactly who we want! Bring a friend or two along too!

Ideal instruments include guitar (electric or acoustic), fiddle, violin (or any string instrument), saxophone, harmonica, bagpipes, or keyboard.

Questions? Call or text Mike at 585-370-5919 or mike@downtownrocs.org
