The Skagit Community Band has been performing in the Skagit Valley for 60 years. Its rich history includes playing for the opening of the “Rest Stop” on I-5 north of Burlington, to the ground breaking of McIntyre Hall in Mount Vernon. The ensemble consists of members that believe in sharing and performing quality music. These musicians come from all walks of life and from all across the North Puget Sound including: Mount Vernon, Burlington, Bellingham, Anacortes, Sedro-Woolley, Whidbey Island, and La Conner. From September to June we rehearse once a week on Tuesday nights from 7:00-9:00 in the band room at Anacortes High School. Our season consists of concerts performed in La Conner, Anacortes and Mount Vernon. We also support the community by sponsoring fundraisers for the local school music programs, and by provideing funds for instrument repair and purchase for students.
The Skagit Community Band is a 501(3)(c) organization.
Community is not just in our name but is the way we present our music.
Generally, the band performs concerts in late October, February, and April. Performances have typically been given at Maple Hall, in La Conner, on a Friday evening, followed by a Sunday afternoon performance at Brodniak Hall, in Anacortes. The band also performs at the Skagit Valley College Commencement and music program in Mount Vernon. The band has also participated in the 4th of July Parade in Anacortes, and an outdoor concert in La Conner at Gilkey Square, in August. See the Information Calendar for more detailed information on our performances. Live concerts have resumed.
