The premiere event for connecting musicians with live music venues is scheduled for Friday, December 13, 2024, at Cactus Theater 10:00am to 3:00pm. The 4th Annual “Getting the Gig” will have a great live music venue panel to answer questions and share their practices for choosing live music at their facility.

This clever workshop will share ideas and strategies to use social media and marketing to continue to grow a new fan base.

If you are a visual artist, start your Fall off right by attending the workshop “Show & Sell Your Art!” presented by Lubbock Cultural Arts Foundation and the Lubbock Arts Alliance.

Struggle to negotiate a great pay rate for your performances or have challenges working with venues? Junior Vasquez will share his wisdom.

This workshop is for creative professionals looking to build their brands and expand their reach. It will explore various topics, including branding, social media, public relations, and networking techniques. Participants will learn through a combination of lectures, case studies, group exercises, and interactive sessions.

Performing live is a critical component in a musicians career. Playing live helps share your music and build your audience. Join us as we learn from Lubbock musician Sam Choate about how to create the best solo or acoustic show for your audience. Sam will share his experience of creating not only a great sound, but also fantastic show.
