Connect2Culture bringing Concert Truck to Joplin


(From Connect2Culture)

Connect2Culture is revisiting its nomadic performing arts roots (before it came home to the Cornell Complex) by bringing The Concert Truck to Joplin for seven special performances held throughout the community from May 15th through 19th! 

This 16-foot box truck transforms into the ultimate mobile concert hall, inviting audiences to experience firsthand how music can bring communities together in extraordinary ways.








Performance Schedule:

Wed, May 15 | 10am: Freeman Health System

Wed, May 15 | 1pm: Thomas Jefferson IDS

Thu, May 16 | 6:30pm: Third Thursday

Fri, May 17 | 10am: Mercy Park Pavilion

Sat, May 18 | 11am: Joplin Empire Market

Sun, May 19 | 10am: The Wildwood Senior Living

Sun, May 19 | 2pm: Joplin Public Library

Teaching artists Susan Zhang and Gabrielle Chou, will play both piano four hands and violin/piano duos throughout their time in Joplin. Their performances in this traveling music venue will strengthen the Joplin community by redefining the concert experience and making live music accessible to everyone.








“What a great way to keep the music going as we end our 23-24 performance season,” says Emily Frankoski, Executive Director of C2C. 

“Although we are very happily at home presenting performances at the Cornell Complex, we still like taking the music out into the community to share our passion for the arts and hopefully ignite that same passion in others.”
