Indianola PorchFest

The Indianola Public Arts Commission is excited to present Indianola PorchFest, a free community event connecting residents to local musicians performing on front porches. On Saturday, Sept. 14, four locations will host a 45-minute music concert on their porch while the audience gathers in the yard. Every hour from 1-4 p.m., a different musician will perform on a different porch, all for free. All attendees have to do is bring your lawn chair, relax and enjoy!

The community is invited to gather at The Village for the first concert and then move to the next venue. “It’s a great opportunity to get to know your neighbors or make friends in a new neighborhood!” said Indianola Public Arts Commission president, Bob Kling. “It’s also a wonderful opportunity for some of our local, talented musicians to entertain in a relaxed and welcoming atmosphere.” The musicians are performing for free, so tipping is encouraged. It’s also a perfect opportunity for children in the neighborhood to open a lemonade stand.
