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! website (https://www.operationgig.org/) 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.
