What a summer!

Over the past two months, we've welcomed thousands of people to Santa Fe Plaza for evenings filled with live music, great food, and time spent together in Downtown Temple. Whether you came to one concert or all four, thank you for making the very first Santa Fe Summer Music Series such a success.

A special thank you to our presenting sponsor, Baylor Scott & White Health Plan, for helping bring this new tradition to life. Your support made it possible to create a free community event that families, friends, and neighbors could enjoy all summer long.

Thank you as well to our incredible musicians, food vendors, activity partners, and everyone who worked behind the scenes to make each Friday night memorable.

This was just the beginning.

We'll see you next summer for even more music, more memories, and more nights under the lights at Santa Fe Plaza!
