Music has a long and formative role in the community life at Westminster. For over 30 years Westminster has engaged and supported music scholars from local university music programs to be part of Westminster’s music ministry.

“This year we will host our annual Community in Concert to once again share the remarkable talents of Westminster’s current music scholars and several other local professional musicians,” says Callie Boone, Minister of Music. “Our intent in hosting these concerts is to foster fellowship and create a community around music to help support the sustainability of our music scholar program. The last two concerts were wonderful. We’re really excited about the talented performers who are joining us this year. It will be an amazing night of music.”

A freewill offering will be collected at the concert to benefit the Westminster Music Scholarship Fund.
