MAKE MUSIC NEW YORK: FREE CONCERTS IN OUTDOOR PUBLIC SPACES



Make Music New York, a free citywide musical celebration, will greet summer for the fifth year in a row with free concerts in outdoor public spaces throughout the five boroughs. This year, June 21st--the first day of summer--falls on a Tuesday. The music begins at 11:00 a.m. and ends by 10:00 p.m.

All New Yorkers, whether they're amateurs or professionals, are welcome to perform. Last year, more than 1,000 performances were given on New York City's sidewalks and in parks, plazas, community gardens, and closed-off streets.

Everything is completely free. There's no cost of any kind to the audiences, the venues, or the musicians.

Are you a musician looking for a place to play? Or do you have a garden, a restaurant, a block party, a sidewalk, or any other outdoor space where you'd like musicians to perform? Musicians looking for spaces and spaces looking for musicians can register here now. Registration ends on Thursday, April 21st.
