Levitt AMP concert series opens for third consecutive season in Carson City
Jammin’ music and electric vibes brought hundreds to the Brewery Arts Center for opening night of the Levitt AMP Carson City free summer concert series Saturday, now in its third year.
Sponsored by the Mortimer and Mimi Levitt Foundation, a national foundation dedicated to strengthening the social fabric of America through free live music, Brewery Arts Center has once again become one of 15 winning organizations that competed nationally for the Levitt AMP Grant Awards just as they did in 2016 and 2017.
The Levitt AMP Grant Awards are an exciting matching grant opportunity created by the Mortimer and Mimi Levitt Foundation out of Los Angeles to serve small to mid-sized towns and cities with populations up to 400,000.
Fifteen nonprofits will receive $25,000 each in matching funds to produce their own Levitt AMP Music Series — an outdoor, free concert series featuring a diverse lineup of professional musicians.
The Original Wailers kicked-off the 2018 summer concert season at the Brewery Arts Center, covering various Bob Marley reggae classics that brought dozens in attendance boogying down to the dance floor.
Along with delicious food from King of Kings food truck, several kids outposts including a bounce house, music station and paint wall brought tons of family-friendly fun to the lively event.
The Brewery Arts Center asks supporters to start spreading the word to family, friends, colleagues and neighbors and rally the community to attend these concerts and support their local arts community.
Having only a few actual employees, the BAC also invites willing community members to come and be a part as a volunteer to help make the concerts safe, memorable and enjoyable for all.
