2021 Festival Highlights
Special Guests at Redfish Concert
Our November 13th, 2021 concert in Port Orford was a wonderful success! We had some very special guests perform at intermission between our two Beethoven Violin Sonatas. Pictured are University of Oregon Students Alfonso Keller-Casielles and Adam Broce performing with students from Coos Bay Levi and Charis Murray on violin and Elias El-Youssef on cello.
RMF Secures Grant from CCCC
We are excited to announce that the Curry County Cultural Coalition is supporting the Redfish Music Festival with a grant recently secured. Ticket sales do not cover the cost of bringing concerts to the coast, so this support is essential to help us fulfill our mission. Thank you CCCC!
RMF Donates to Port Orford Community Building Fund
The final concert of our 2021 festival was dedicated to helping the town of Port Orford raise money for their Community Building Project Fund. Our concert raised $556 for the project!
