Update on the Grace Presents live stream

Our beloved videographer since 2020, Dave Alcorn, has moved to Pittsburgh to pursue a career opportunity as Director of Digital Marketing and Engagement for the Pittsburgh Cultural Trust. Please join us in thanking Dave for his years of committed support and expertise in providing pristine, high-quality documentation of the Grace Presents concert series, especially during the height of the COVID-19 pandemic, when live concert attendance was not an option.

For the time being, Grace Presents will pause its live-streaming service to focus on maintainging the highest quality experience for in-person concerts. Select concerts will still be audio-recorded by Bruce and Tim Kasprzyk. Stay tuned here for ways to access these recordings.
