What is Make Music Ventura County?

Make Music Ventura County is a part of the International Make Music Day movement which brings free, community-wide, outdoor musical celebrations to hundreds of cities worldwide! Every year, the celebration is held on June 21, the summer solstice, in more than 1,000 communities around the world.

Make Music Ventura County will feature musicians of all abilities and music from any genre. Sidewalks, parks, front porches, public and social media spaces throughout the city will become stages for local musicians to perform and for all to enjoy.

Who Participates Everyone is invited to participate in this international day of music by performing, providing an outdoor space, appreciating, or volunteering. It’s all for the love of music!

Make Music Ventura County is brought to you by the NAMM Foundation and Cyndi Hall’s Music Studio as part of our mission to inspire all people to participate and invest in the arts within their community.
