We’re proud to be part of a community rich in culture and the arts. We hope you take the opportunity to experience the diverse talents found in our community.
To inform you of the latest up-and-coming events we will post the most current concert we have scheduled, as well as other art and musical events taking place in Bay City on this “What’s Next” web page. You also can sign up for weekly updates via the What’s Next In Bay City website.
The What’s Next in Bay City organization is a group of art and music organizations collectively building a stronger network in an effort to get the word out about performances taking place in Bay City.
Often we hear from people who attend our concerts for the first time that we are the “best-kept secret” of Bay City. We feel that way about many of our colleagues. Come and enjoy the performances planned especially for your pleasure. We don’t want to be a “secret.” We want to hear from you and produce the performance you desire.
For events scheduled throughout the year, please use the event link found in the right sidebar.
We look forward to seeing you Tuesday evening, February 28, at 7:30 p.m.!
