Greetings, Busker Nation!
You heard right. This year’s street music event will be our 20th annual. I know. Where did the time go? I’m counting on all of you regulars to spread the word for new recruits. Tell newcomers to contact me at dougclarksville@gmail.com so I can add them to our street music database for details and the latest updates. SMW 2022 can be our biggest and best bash, a real tribute to two decades’ worth of sidewalk performances to raise money for our charity of choice: the 2nd Harvest food bank. Consider this: Street Music Week has raised more than $290,000 in those 19 years. That translates to providing some 1.4 million meals for the hungry. That’s an incredible accomplishment and all because of YOU! – the many good-hearted entertainers who make up the Red Bucket Brigade. This year we’re sure to blow past the $300,000 donation mark and by a healthy margin. My sources at 2nd Harvest tell me that the need has never been greater. Stay tuned for more information as we get closer to our landmark event. (And make sure to check out our Street Music Week Facebook page.) Remember. It’s about generosity, not virtuosity. Rock On!

"This year’s need is like never before. It’s like watching dominos topple: the virus closed businesses, which put so many out of work, which put an unprecedented strain on the food bank resources." - Doug Clark
