Musicians for Gun Sense will host a concert highlighting diverse musicians with a common interest in enacting common sense gun legislation. Organizer and musician Twila Jean will host this event featuring folk musician and actor Tom Kastle, First Avenue Acoustic, Hoot N’ Annie String Band, The Raging Grannies, and Forward! Marching Band. The event will take place at the Farley Center in Verona, WI.
In addition to the musical offerings, several organizations working toward peaceful solutions to violence, better gun legislation, and secure storage will be on hand to engage in discussion and disseminate information. These guests include representatives from Moms Demand Action, Students Demand Action, Be SMART, Southwest Wisconsin Area Progressives, and Pastor Jeff Wild of Guns 2 Garden Tools.
The Farley Center offers a beautiful setting to enjoy music and spark discussion on creating a more peaceful society. The musicians, sound engineer, speakers, and volunteers are donating their time and talent for this free concert sponsored by The Farley Center, Moms Demand Action, and the Southwest Wisconsin Area Progressives.
Moms Demand Action is a national organization founded by Shannon Watts, a mother of five. The day after the Sandy Hook tragedy, Shannon started a Facebook group with the message that all Americans can and should do more to reduce gun violence. The online conversation turned into a movement of moms, dads, students, families, concerned citizens, and survivors. Moms Demand Action has gone on to establish a volunteer chapter in every state of the country and Washington, D.C. and is part of Everytown for Gun Safety, the largest gun violence prevention organization in the country with nearly 10 million supporters.
This event also features authentic Navajo fry bread (please bring cash for food sales). Attendees are welcome to bring beverages of their choosing, and lawn chairs or lawn blankets.
