We are thankful for funding from the Bassano Recreation Grant, the Alberta Foundation for the Arts and the Department of Canadian Heritage: Re-Engaging Audiences Fund for Professional Arts Presentation Organizations!!

On June 3rd, 2022 – we were pleased to present Calgary’s “Bobby Gosse Band” in concert! Thanks to all of you who came and had fun – a sold-out evening with GREAT music!

Summer 2021 Review:

On July 7th, we hosted a Concert in the Park with Jamie Allanach! And on July 21st, we had a great time with the Red Hot Hayseeds! On August 4th, we had a wonderful evening with Lyndsay Butler. Marcus Trummer, a 20-year-old from Calgary, joined us in the park on August 19th and astounded us with his original tunes and great covers! On Wednesday, September 1st  – the band RUTSTUR thoroughly entertained us even though the weather was very cool and windy! 

     

We are thankful for financial assistance from the Government of Canada, the Department of Canadian Heritage, and the Alberta Foundation for the Arts! 

On  September 10 and 11, 2021, we hosted the 2nd Bassano DamFest and Culture Days! All events were FREE of charge!!
