The Snowbird Concert Series: Free, Inclusive, and Enriching for Central Texas 

 

The Snowbird Concert Series is a free, all-ages music program presented by the nonprofit OYOU (Own Your Own Universe), held on the first Thursday of each month from November through February. Designed to enrich the cultural life of Central Texas during the winter months, the series features high-quality performances by both local and touring artists. Each concert also includes a unique Q&A segment, allowing the audience to engage directly with performers—fostering connection, inspiration, and a deeper appreciation for the creative process.

 

With average attendance ranging from 100 to 150 people per event, the series has become a beloved gathering for individuals from diverse backgrounds, including older adults, people with disabilities, and those living on fixed incomes. The concerts are hosted in accessible venues with easy parking, early showtimes, and a welcoming atmosphere—ensuring that all community members can participate fully, regardless of physical or financial barriers.

 

By offering these concerts at no cost, OYOU removes a common obstacle to arts participation and creates space for meaningful social interaction, intergenerational engagement, and creative exploration. The Snowbird Concert Series not only strengthens the local arts ecosystem but also contributes to the vitality of the region by encouraging attendees to eat, shop, and stay in San Marcos—supporting small businesses and celebrating the beauty of the Texas Hill Country.

 

We invite sponsors, grantmakers, and community partners to help sustain this valued cultural tradition and ensure that music continues to bring people together, season after season.
