Levitt Pavilion Board of Directors to Host Public Forum Discussing Project
Denver- What if the local music industry at large- musicians, promoters, technicians, journalists- were involved in designing the newest crown jewel in Colorado’s performance venues? We’re about to find out.
On Monday, Nov 17, 2014 at 6 pm, Friends of Levitt Pavilion Denver will host a one-night forum to discuss the new amphitheater planned for Ruby Hill Park. Slated to open in 2016, Levitt Pavilion Denver is among the most exciting opportunities in our community and will provide 50 free concerts a year featuring local, national, and interenational musicians, with an emphasis on creative and diverse programming.
“Involving our local scene before the amphitheater is even designed is crucial,” says Executive Director Chris Zacher. “After all, who’s more knowledgeable than the people so spend so much time on-stage? We know their unique perspective will help create a truly special artist experience.”
As a commitment to Colorado’s exploding music scene, half of Levitt Denver’s programming will feature local aritsts. The musicians will be paid generously and competitively, even though the concerts are free. “We believe Colorado’s music scene is something special, and deserves to be showcased as well as cultivated,” Zacher says.
Attendees will meet the Board of Directors and managers of Levitt Pavilion Denver. Ask questions about this incredible project, and obtain information about band submissions. The forum will close with a brainstorming session.
To celebrate the occasion, longtime local scene veteran Chad Aman will host a jam session featuring some of the greatest talent in the state. As an added bonus, musicians will be able to enter their band to win the opening slot at the brand new venue. For more information about the Denver Levitt Pavilion project, visit levittdenver.org.
