Levitt AMP Utica COVID-19 Response

Hello, friends and music lovers!

We hope that you are all healthy and bringing the arts into your homes through all of the amazing live music options our local and national bands are providing us. Please support their talent as much as you can – this is an incredibly trying time for working musicians.

Summer is coming and hopefully, the end to this global pandemic will be coming as well.

Planning Levitt AMP is a year-round effort and our stellar team has been working on the 2020 season since the announcement of the grant in December. While things have been moving along nicely, we are taking a temporary pause for a few weeks to monitor what happens in the world. We have plan B, plan C and even a plan D for the series if state or federal directives delay or prohibit public gatherings. That MAY include delaying our start date, reducing the number of concerts, or a handful of other scenarios. Our planned start date is June 29th. If anything changes, we will let keep you posted.

We DO know two things for sure:

1. The Levitt Foundation is behind us 100% – they have pledged their full support for our 2020 series. (Please read their latest reVerb blog post here). They are providing amazing resources to us and we are engaging in town hall Zoom meetings, calls and messages with our sister Levitt AMP cities all over the country to work through this challenge together.

2. As soon as we get word we can move ahead, our team is ON IT. This series energizes us like no other and once we are through to the other side of this, we look forward to providing an amazing experience for you where we can reconnect as a community and enjoy FREE live music together. Music is powerful and healing. And come summer, it will be just what we need.

We can’t wait to see you.

The entire Levitt AMP Utica team
