Free Noon Concerts
This summer treat yourself to the sweet sounds of the OSU Summer Session - Wednesday's @ Noon Concerts here on the beautiful OSU campus!
In partnership with MU Program Council (MUPC) and MU Events, the logistics and management of the weekly concerts support 'service learning' opportunities for students while providing our audience with some great FREE summer time entertainment during the work week. Students from MUPC select performers from around the northwest, from a variety of genre', and coordinate the entire event. While, students from MU Events manage the venue (stage/chairs/performance area) along with the sound/electronic requirements of the performers.
So grab your lunch and join us for an hour of outdoor fun, relaxation and the great sounds of musicians from around the great NW!
