Bring chairs and/or a blanket and join us at Wilson Park for a night of food, drinks, and music to celebrate the good work being done at Stepping Stones!

Stepping Stones is a non-profit based in Menomonie, WI that seeks to foster a community that prevents hunger, homelessness, and isolation throughout Dunn County. They work to help strengthen the Dunn County community by providing food, shelter, and support for those in need.

Hailing from western Wisconsin and shaped by humble beginnings, Allison Dyg is an artist who refuses to follow the beaten path. Forged by the pressures of life and driven by an unrelenting hunger to create, she channels raw emotion into music that defies convention. Her sound is unapologetically gritty, unfiltered, and deeply authentic. She crafts songs that blend synth-heavy soundscapes, raw acoustic guitar, and haunting vocals. Her music resonates with those who embrace complexity—seeking passion, introspection, and a deeper connection in sound and lyricism.

Get up, get down, get yourself ready to dance and sing along to Funky hits that keep your heart thumping! Join Cantus as they put their soulful harmonic spin on tunes you know and love. Featuring the music of Stevie Wonder, Quincy Jones, Earth Wind & Fire, and more, Cantus’ Pure Funk setlist is a testament to the timeless power of groove.

The “engaging” (New Yorker) low-voice ensemble Cantus is widely known for its trademark warmth and blend, innovative programming and riveting performances of music ranging from the Renaissance to the 21st century. The Washington Post has hailed the Cantus sound as having both “exalting finesse” and “expressive power” and refers to the “spontaneous grace” of its music making. The Philadelphia Inquirer called the group nothing short of “exquisite.” 

As one of the nation’s few full-time vocal ensembles, Cantus has come to prominence with its distinctive approach to creating music. Working without a conductor, the members of Cantus rehearse and perform as chamber musicians, each contributing to the entirety of the artistic process, creating programs that give voice to shared human experiences. As the Star Tribune has written, “The main hallmark of the Cantus sound has always been sheer quality and an unbroken belief in the special way that vocal music has of warming and invigorating the human spirit.”
