MUSIC OFF CENTRAL

MISSION STATEMENT

The Mission of Music Off Central is to put “unity back in our community” through music, friendships, food, fun and laughter. MOC provides a FREE venue for families to come together and enjoy musical concerts while the children have the option to play in the Splash Pad and playground area in our beautiful public park.

We take pride in Sutherlin, as well as in Central Park. Our goal is to not only bring a variety of music venues for all to enjoy but to also motivate and enlighten young hopeful performers and musicians in our community. We hope to inspire creativity, and encourage their passion for music and the performing arts by offering a scholarship to an applied and selected student each year forward.

Our

History

Since about 2005 there has been an interested “downtown group” of mostly business people and city involvement meeting and discussing ways to improve downtown. Along the way, a brainstorming session produced the idea of having free music in Central Park to help draw people to our community. Then in 2008 former  resident Patricia Klassen and J Lindeen Brown attended a Main Street Oregon Training Program in Salem. Sutherlin Downtown Development Inc. then became a 503C1 entity focused

mostly on beautification and cleaning up downtown. Things progressed and in 2013 Jo Barnes and a small committee organized  Music Off Central for music in the park on Friday evenings and gospel music on Sunday evenings. 

Part 2 coming soon.  Stay tuned….
