About this Event
Rose City Guitar is a queer woman-owned guitar school focusing on community and collaborative-based education. RCGC specializes in various subgenres of rock, metal, blues, Americana, and fingerstyle percussive guitar. The 2024 Summer concert is a very exciting event where the students have an opportunity to perform in a band setting and show off their talents since attending the school. There will be multiple genre performances as well as food, beverages, and a raffle for a chance to win awesome prizes! Plus other games and a henna tattoo artist - so bring the whole family for loads of fun! Open to the public~
The concert will be taking place at Oaks Park in Picnic Area 9 - We will open to the public at 1pm with music starting at 2pm.
As a school, we know the importance of creating a platform for students to be able to perform and express themselves musically as well as building a community of like-minded musicians willing to further their education to become better musicians. The experience of performing in a band setting is extremely influential and has been proven to motivate our students to improve rapidly and even start their own bands, sometimes with other students attending RCGC. Our school recently moved locations and expanded into retail. Now we have more services available for our students and community including more equipped classrooms, guitar technician/repair services, workshops/education events, and opportunities to perform open mics and attend intimate performances in the new space. The profits from this concert will help us to keep special events like this running and offer more exciting workshops and educational opportunities. Please join us for an afternoon of local music with current and future musicians of Portland!
