| A Message from C. Scott Hagler, Executive Director

It’s my pleasure to announce Southwest Arts’ virtual 2020–2021 season! Take a close look at the concerts in the left column, and you’ll notice that there’s a nice variety of performers and repertoire. I’ll enjoy introducing you to several duos, a trio that performed on last season's series and several solo performers that hail not only from the region, but from across the country, as well. You’ll find artist bios and program info by clicking on the images above.

One good thing that has come from the pandemic is our ability to bring you concerts that we wouldn't have been able to put on during “normal” times, due to scheduling or finances. Several of this season's concerts fall into that category. So enjoy these artists while you can!

Here's how this thing works. A few hours before the concert's start time, I'll email you a link to the concert. After you receive the link, you'll have at least a week to catch the concert. We suggest playing the concert through your best speakers, headphones or earbuds.

I invite you to purchase a season pass, which includes all seven concerts which you can watch and listen to at your convenience, at a savings of $15. It's like getting a concert for free. CLICK HERE to subscribe to the season.

As supporters of the arts you know that ticket sales cover only a portion of the costs of putting on such concerts as these. Would you please consider providing additional support to the series? Your tax-deductible gift helps us continue these beautiful events. You can donate securely online HERE.
