KSUT had planned on making an announcement today of a major outdoor concert that we are co-producing with the Community Concert Hall at Fort Lewis College. As a result of the developments regarding the coronavirus, we are postponing this announcement to a further date. At this time, all other KSUT concerts, festivals and events are moving forward as planned.
Thanks to College Drive Cafe for breakfast, and The Container at Ska Brewing for lunch!
