Ruth Ann Beard Concert Series

The Ruth Ann Beard Concert Series exists to maximize the stewardship of our Sanctuary and its musical instruments, to engage our arts community in the life of our church, and to honor the 65-year ministry of our recently retired organist, Ruth Ann Beard. Kentucky and its region of the USA is abundant in musical talent and tradition. The concert series brings in local and regional talent of all sizes and genres, from choirs to bluegrass bands, and even includes our big in-house programs like the Christmas and Easter cantatas. The Ruth Ann Beard Concert Fund provides financial backing for the series so that each concert is ticketless and free to all. Be a part of making the series possible by donating here.
