The Harmonies of Hope Music Festival kicked off last week and will continue every weekend through December, aiming to provide support to local businesses and community members through music.
Thanks to a grant, all these events are free for the public to attend.
According to Janie Tomek with Create Princeton, Harmonies of Hope serves as a platform to support music and the community, while also playing an essential role in the ongoing healing process following the December 2021 tornado.

She says the mission of Create Princeton is to have fine arts opportunities and always support our community and local businesses. Tomek adds that she hopes they have the support and when they write a grant they can show the attendance rate and be able to continue to fund those opportunities.
Tomek invites all community members to come and enjoy the Harmonies of Hope events because music heals.
