The Concert Truck

Connect2Culture is revisiting its nomadic performing arts roots (before it came home to the Cornell Complex) by bringing The Concert Truck to Joplin for seven special performances held throughout the community from May 15th through 19th. This 16-foot box truck transforms into the ultimate mobile concert hall, inviting audiences to experience firsthand how music can bring communities together in extraordinary ways.
