2024 Unity of Sound Community Music Festival

Registration is closed

About This Event

Unity of Sound | Saturday, November 2, 2024 | 12-4:30pm

Portsmouth Middle School

This event is FREE, with a suggested donation of $10/individual or $25/family for those who are able. If you would like to make a donation in advance of the festival, you can use this page to give online. Donations will also be accepted at the door. No tickets or advance registration are needed in order to attend!

Thank you for joining us at Unity of Sound! We are excited to come together to celebrate the power of music and community, as well as the dedication and hard work by the 17 adult music ensembles you will hear on stage. It is a true manifestation of PMAC's mission of building community through the arts.

Though there is no cost for admission to the Unity of Sound festival, there is a suggested donation. All proceeds from the 2024 festival will support PMAC's Creative Aging Program, which provides free and reduced tuition for music and art students over the age of 65 in an effort to combat social isolation and loneliness in older adults. Surprisingly, studies have revealed that loneliness can be just as detrimental to one's health as smoking 15 cigarettes per day. This epidemic is particularly concerning for older adults – a demographic that is growing rapidly in Rockingham county, as with the entire State of New Hampshire.

Your event donation will go a long way in helping us continue providing these important tuition assistance programs to older students across the Seacoast. Thank you for considering a gift of support. We look forward to seeing you on Saturday, November 2nd!
