RONAN — On Friday, March 29, Mission Valley Live brought Stringfever to the stage at the Ronan Performing Arts Center. A family band from England, Stringfever members include Ralph, Sophie, Graham and Neal. The quartet entertained audience members with their electric string instruments and comedic timing.
Mission Valley live is a non-profit organization whose main goal is to bring live arts to the schools in the valley, from Dayton-Dixon. Trisha Campbell, secretary of Mission Valley Live stated, “I’ve learned a lot from being a part of something as special as this.” As a non-profit organization, MVL’s main source of income comes from grants they receive. “If we didn’t get grants we wouldn’t be able to do any of what we do,” Campbell said.
Mission Valley Live’s concert season runs from October-April, following the school season. Normally there is 7-8 evening performances, and around 20 outreach programs at schools and area nursing homes. MVL achieves their goal of bringing live arts to the school through the Montana Performing Arts Consortium, where bands from all over the world come to auditions for these programs. MVL then takes the selected bands and tours them across Montana. To learn more, visit: Missionvalleylive.com
