Rosie’s House music academy for children is bringing music back to the Phoenix area once again this year through its annual, city-wide, all-day celebration of music and community: Make Music Phoenix. The city will transform into one big stage on Sunday, June 21, as more than a dozen venues host (mostly) free music performances throughout the day.

Last year, Make Music Phoenix served more than 5,700 community members across 13 ZIP codes, in collaboration with 18 museums, libraries, local businesses, artists and volunteers.

This year, music will come alive at venues such as Arizona Opera’s Wittcoff Black Box theater. Events include a music pop-up at Monsoon Market; Valley Metro will offer a Ride the Rails, Hear the Music experience; there will be Taiko drumming and family dance classes on Grand Avenue; and Strip Mall will host a vinyl pop-up.

In addition, Rosie’s House will host a kickoff celebration and celebrate 30 years of music from 9 a.m. to noon, where residents can start Make Music Phoenix with music, games, and fun at this lively morning of performances, activities, free breakfast and Valley Metro passes (while supplies last).
