PICKIN' PRODUCTIONS: Pickin' in the Parks
- PICKIN' IN THE PARK
Pickin' Productions presented two months of great Americana and Roots Music on the Western Slope of Colorado this past summer with two free concert series. From July 9th to August 27th on 8 consecutive Thursdays, there were four free concerts in Ridgway's town park and four free concerts in Paonia's town park.
- July 2010 - Ridgway
Last July we wrapped up a second season of free summer concerts in Ridgway's beautiful town park. For four Thursdays in July, folks from all over the Western Slope of Colorado gathered in numbers to enjoy great live music and summer nights in one of Colorado's most scenic towns. With the San Juan Mountains as the backdrop, listeners enjoyed a wide variety of quality live music, while eating and drinking local food and beer from the vendors and dancing into the dark. The kid's area was packed with swarms of children hoola hoopin' and trying on costumes alongside Ridgway's enormous kids playground and each night the kids paraded in costume, with scarves and fairy wings, through the crowd and up in front of the stage.
The 2009 Ridgway free summer concerts were brought to you by the Town of Ridgway along with support from community sponsors.
