Since the first Town & Gown Musicale in 1990, this highly anticipated annual event has celebrated the vibrant music scene and abundant musical talent of Ames. Our unique fundraiser offers a sparkling musical collage of central Iowa’s most talented performers from the community at large and Iowa State University.

Enjoy musical offerings ranging from traditional chamber music to lighter fare. The event supports Town & Gown and chamber music directly while enhancing our sense of musical community. “My favorite night of the year!” exclaims one audience member.

A sumptuous buffet of gourmet delicacies and warm camaraderie follow the concert. Please note: event begins at 7:00 PM.
