Don't Miss Make Music Day

Sometimes it's all too easy to look with some envy at festivals and public life in other cities. But today, in a direct and unambiguous way, Salem is at the top. Appreciate greatness, Salemites! Seize the moment!

Make Music Salem

Make Music Day is a truly great festival of public space and creativity. It's in the streets, not principally in a park, inside a fence, or in any way restricted. (Though some performance sites have a fence, like Gaiety Hollow, the garden and home for Lord & Schryver. But they have to be free!)

All over the Salem area

It's huge here! The organizers have done a remarkable job with the concept. How often does Salem legit get mentioned with New York and Philadelphia, cultural centers and cities far, far larger?

In the company of larger cities

Alleys, sidewalks, parking lots!
Kids, adults, pros, amateurs on a lark!

So don't miss this fabulous expression of creativity, art, and life.
