Join Us for 2025

Through our Arts in the City event series, we provide FREE all-ages concerts to the community every summer in the parks and in Downtown Minot! These events allow us to connect our neighbors with regional musicians, visual artists, artisan vendors, and businesses to develop and strengthen a culture of artistic enrichment and community engagement within the city of Minot. Join us for the fun this summer!

Thursdays Downtown
Held in the heart of Minot, Thursdays Downtown transforms downtown spaces into energetic hubs of live music, local food trucks, artisan vendors, and community spirit. With two performers each evening, the music kicks off at 5:30 PM and continues into the night. From folk to funk, brass bands to rock groups, Thursdays Downtown brings big city energy with small town heart, all summer long. We’re especially looking forward to having our events in Citizen’s Alley once it fully opens! 

Sundays in the Park
Set beneath the leafy canopy of Oak Park, Sundays in the Park offers a more laid-back, family-friendly atmosphere featuring beloved local and regional acts. Performances are held at 4:00 PM and 7:00 PM, inviting the community to relax, bring a chair or blanket, and enjoy timeless tunes in a beautiful natural setting. It’s the perfect way to wind down the weekend with music and connection.
