Through the month of April 2015, we are collecting donations for Blue Star Connection! BSG is a wonderful non-profit 501C3 organization that gifts musical instruments to children and young adults who are suffering from cancer and other life threatening challenges. Blue Star Connection also provides instruments to music therapy programs.
There really is no limit to what you could donate: guitars, basses, drum kits, electric keyboards, flutes, violins, etc. Any working instruments that can help to bring some joy to a child’s life is welcome.
Donations may be dropped off at our office located at 1018 Centre Avenue, Fort Collins, CO 80526 during normal business hours:
Monday – Friday: 8:00am-6:00pm
Saturday: 9:00am-5:00pm
Sunday: 9:00am-3:00pm
Join us! Blue Star Connection 2015 Benefit Event
Additionally, we are a proud sponsor of an upcoming Fort Collins concert to benefit Blue Star Connection at the Blind Pig (214 Linden St., Fort Collins) on Thursday, April 30th at 6:30 PM.
The Northern Colorado Community is joining their talents and support to help children with the healing gift of music! Blue Star Fort Collins will include energizing performances by the fabulous Liz Barnez, The Robert Wilson Blues Band and Chaotic Serenity. Local emerging youth musicians from RISE will perform, along with 11 year old Grace Kuch, and 10 year-old Emma Marie, both recipients of prestigious awards.
Art students of Johnson Elementary will be auctioning their artistic cigar box guitars. Gently used instruments in working condition and monetary donations will also be gratefully accepted at the event.
