Heartbreaking news this morning about the City Park Bandstand 💔

Overnight, a fire severely damaged this iconic space, one that has brought our community together for decades.

For us, it hits especially close to home. This is where we host our annual Rock in the Park event. An event that helps fund the majority of our music scholarships for the students of School of Rock Denver each year and creates unforgettable moments for so many kids and families.

The board is already working on solutions and there are ways to help.

If you’ve ever sat on that lawn, listened to music there, or been part of what it represents…now’s the time to show up.
