About The Good Neighbor Concert Series
The Good Neighbor Concert Series (GNCS) launched in Fall of 2024 to provides a high-quality, inclusive, and accessible listening-room experience for the Greater-Lansing community. The series works to raise awareness, funding, and other support for local nonprofit organizations, collaborates with local businesses whose values align with its mission, and elevates the voices of emerging, underrepresented, minority, and marginalized musical artists from around the state of Michigan and beyond, as well as those whose lives and work clearly exemplify and advocate for a more just, peaceful, kind, healthy, diverse, equitable, inclusive, and accessible community, state, and world. Each event features a different nonprofit organization, which receives a minimum of 10% of the proceeds from ticket sales and concessions. The nonprofit partner organizations also have the opportunity to table at the event so that patrons can learn more, get involved, and/or donate additional funds directly if desired. The series takes place at Stage One at Sycamore Creek Eastwood Stage One at Sycamore Creek Eastwood, a performance venue made available to the Greater-Lansing community by Sycamore Creek Church (SCC), an inclusive, affirming church where diversity is celebrated and all people are welcome. It occurs once a month. The series also partners with local food-based businesses to provide a variety of concession items for purchase at the events in the time between when the doors open and when the music begins.
Season 1 of the series focused on highlighting Michigan’s fantastic roster of female singer/songwriters, drawing from a combination of local talent and artists from all around the state.
Season 2 of the series will be announced soon, with the first concert scheduled for Tuesday, October 14, 2025. Please follow our FB page at https://www.facebook.com/TheGoodNeighborConcertSeries for the latest announcements!
