Fort Smith’s series has become a beloved tradition, featuring diverse local and national acts that draw audiences of all ages to experience the city’s growing cultural scene.

“Being awarded this grant for another three years is a tremendous honor,” said Amanda Hager, Executive Director of Main Street Fort Smith. “Partnering with RiverBoy Foundation allows us to elevate the Levitt AMP Fort Smith Music Series even further, building community connections and creating unforgettable experiences in the heart of our city.”

“I’m honored to partner with Main Street and Levitt AMP, two organizations that share my belief in the power of music to bring people together,” said Rhyan Besco, Executive Director of RiverBoy Foundation.

Together, Main Street Fort Smith and RiverBoy Foundation will curate a dynamic concert lineup that continues to highlight the diversity of music and the vibrancy of Fort Smith’s downtown district. Beyond the concerts, the partnership will emphasize community engagement, volunteerism, and opportunities for local organizations and businesses to be part of the series.

Concert dates, artists, and additional details for the upcoming season will be announced at a later date.
