Join us in celebrating the Month of the Military Caregiver with an afternoon of music presented by Musicians On Call! This special event celebrates the incredible dedication and sacrifices of military caregivers with the healing power of music.
Musicians On Call is an organization that delivers both live and recorded music directly to the bedsides of patients, their families, and devoted caregivers in healthcare facilities across the country. For this virtual concert, a selection of their talented volunteer musicians will perform inspiring and uplifting songs in a tribute to those who provide unwavering support to our nation’s heroes.
Whether you're a caregiver, a family member, or simply someone who wants to show appreciation, we invite you to take a break, tune in, and enjoy an afternoon filled with moving melodies and community spirit. Space is limited, so make sure to secure your spot and join us for tunes and celebration!
