The Emerging Performing Artists (EPA) program offers a range of opportunities for up-and-coming artists to showcase their talents, connect with local audiences, and receive support. While the sessions primarily focus on musical performance, they are also open to other forms of artistic expression.

What is a performer without an audience? 
The performances are free and open to the public, providing an opportunity for the community to enjoy and appreciate the artists’ work. Drinks available for purchase!
