🌟 We’re excited to welcome GO Help Confidently as a Friend of the Arts for this year’s Ribs & Riffs!

Their mission is all about empowering neighbors, coworkers, and families with the confidence to act in a crisis—because being prepared isn’t just practical, it’s powerful.

We’re so grateful for their support of the arts and this event. And hey, one way to stay ready? Let loose, sing to your own tune, and let music do the healing. We’ll see you at our event on June 20! 🎶

If you’re free this evening, June 4 @ 4p, stop by Dan Meredith Agency, LLC: Allstate Insurance GO Help Confidently Instructors are doing a meet and greet, answering questions and giving demos. This event is free for everyone!

We also want to give a heartfelt thank you to Jim Dandys and School of Rock—without your partnership, this event wouldn’t be possible. Together, you’re helping us bring music, flavor, and community spirit to the heart of Rutherford. 🙌
