ACKER NIGHT
This is a FREE downtown event for everyone. The streets in downtown Prescott are closed and the businesses open their doors for a few hours for this wonderful evening event.
The Christmas lights are gleaming, and music fills the air for this special one night.
When you see a "Tips for Scholarships" bag in front of a performer, your donations go to our Yavapai County school age children for music lessons to those that may not otherwise get that chance. Depending on how much is donated year to year, we also donate to our local school district's music department, since the arts are the first to get budget cuts. We also with donations permitting, repair local school music department instruments, help send special musicians and groups on to bigger competitions and have purchased or given instruments for those in need.
We generally are able to grant over 50 lesson scholarships for the arts per year.
