The ‘A Night at The Church” concert series will offer local musicians and artists an opportunity to perform and showcase their art in a creative, inspiring space to audiences of all ages.
“There is an increasing demand for this type of venue for those looking for a change from the usual club scene,” said coordinator Sara Murphy.
The collaborative workspace at 130 Sydney Street features vaulted ceilings, picturesque stained glass windows and gleaming hardwood floors.
Local entrepreneur and “The Church on Sydney” founder Brock Frost is excited about the event and hopes to see the arts community make use of the space for creative pursuits such as concerts.
“We would love to see events like this happen in here on a regular basis,” said Frost. “We have this beautiful space here right downtown. It would be great to see people take in a show, dinner, go for a walk down to the park and spend some time downtown in the evening.”
