Make Music Day

Each year the Liberty Arts Commission hosts Make Music Liberty on June 21 as a part of the international Make Music Day event. Make Music Day is held in more than 1,000 cities around the world on June 21, the Summer Solstice. Starting in 1982 in France as the Fête de la Musique, it is now held on the same day in more than 700 cities in 120 countries. Forty years ago, the Fête de la Musique crossed the Atlantic with the debut of Make Music New York. 

This is a free, live musical celebration for all ages, all genres of music and all levels of musical ability. Throughout the day, you may hear music being performed on sidewalks, residential porches, the steps of churches, parking lots, in one of Liberty’s city parks or at a public place of business that has volunteered to be a host venue.
