As our fall concert season gets underway, we’re taking a moment to celebrate an incredible summer of music, connection, and community in Ogden!

From local festivals and free outreach activities to student performances and hundreds of volunteer hours, Onstage Ogden’s community outreach programs brought people together across Weber County throughout summer 2026.

Thanks to our dedicated volunteers, talented young musicians, and enthusiastic supporters, we made this a summer to remember. Here’s a look at what we accomplished together!

Connecting with the Ogden Community

Our Onstage Ogden Community Booth was busy all summer! We loved meeting neighbors, sharing information about upcoming performances, and celebrating the arts at some of Ogden’s favorite community events.

You may have spotted us at:

  • Ogden Farmers Market
  • Ogden Arts Festival
  • Mountain Arts & Music Festival
  • Juneteenth Festival

These events gave us the opportunity to connect with longtime patrons, introduce new audiences to Onstage Ogden, and share our love of live music and the performing arts.

Over 450 Volunteer Hours Supporting the Arts

Our volunteers are at the heart of everything we do. This summer, our incredible volunteer community contributed more than 450 hours supporting Onstage Ogden’s concerts, educational activities, and outreach events!

From helping children create their own Popsicle Stick Harmonicas at free community events to welcoming guests and ushering at our summer concerts at Ogden Amphitheater, our volunteers made a lasting impact.

As a nonprofit arts organization, Onstage Ogden relies on the generosity and dedication of people who believe in the power of live performance to bring communities together.

Celebrating Young Musicians in Ogden

Some of our favorite summer moments came from the talented young musicians participating in Onstage Ogden’s Jean Pell Music Scholarship and Prelude Student Showcase programs.

These programs support emerging musical talent and provide opportunities for young performers to share their skills with the community.

Throughout the summer, our student musicians brought live music to audiences at:

  • Golden Hours Senior Center
  • Ogden Arts Festival
  • Daybreak Senior Center
  • Dumke Plaza
  • Ogden Farmers Market

From lively outdoor gatherings to intimate performances at local senior centers, these young artists helped bring the joy of live music to people throughout Ogden.

Their dedication and talent remind us why investing in the next generation of musicians is so important.

Thank You for an Incredible Summer!

Community engagement is an essential part of Onstage Ogden’s mission. Every conversation, volunteer hour, and performance helps strengthen our connection to the people and places that make Ogden such a vibrant arts community.
