“This event is the first of its kind here in Wyoming. We’ll be highlighting over 25 local musical acts from funk and folk, to classical and country. This free festival is for and by the people of Laramie, and we encourage everyone to come out, walk around, yard to yard, enjoying the music” says Sharon Martinson, Musical Director and event coordinator on behalf of LPAC.
LPAC is a 501 (c) 3 non-profit organization with a mission to enhance the unique visual and cultural vibrancy of Laramie and Albany County, in a manner that encourages participation and engagement from all our citizens and visitors. Funds from Wyoming Art Council, Wyoming Cultural Trust Fund, Pete Lien and Sons, the City of Laramie, Laramie Beautification Committee and Albany County Commissioners contribute to the operating costs of LPAC.
