Band Together:

June 3rd - Grassroots arts and music festival.  “Band Together” was born in acknowledgment of the poignant social and economic problems at home and abroad. It not only represents Bands coming together and playing for a purpose, but also symbolizes the desire of the average man to “Band Together” to help combat domestic violence and support international needs through education.
