From Operation Gig!
This is it folks! This Sunday will be the 61st and final show of 2024. But we don't want it to be our last! To return in 2025, we need to rebuild our Musician Guarantee Fund and donations have stalled. Please chip in!

------------------------------------
Operation Gig! concerts sometimes get canceled because of weather conditions that
aren't suitable for outdoor activities. Before you go to the concert,
check the Operation Gig!'s website or Facebook page to see if it's been canceled.
Operation Gig! provides live music performances outdoors on weekends.
The series, held on the porches of private houses in Ditmas
Park, started in July 2020 in order to offer a venue where musicians could
perform during the pandemic. This provides them with a source of income and provides a safe space for people to
gather to enjoy live music.
Although
the performances are free, the suggested $10 donation to the musicians is
more than welcome. Donate either at the performance itself or
to the tax-deductible Operation Gig Musician Guarantee Fund on GoFundMe.
Operation Gig t-shirts can be purchased here; the proceeds go to the Operation Gig Musician Guarantee Fund.
