Newmarket's Riverwalk Commons water feature will once again be transformed into a beautifully lit stage complete with a baby grand piano on Friday, Sept. 9 for Splash of Culture.

This free concert will feature three Canadian performers in the unique setting: 

  • Charissa, a singer-songwriter whose sound is grounded in Americana and laidback soul;
  • The Glenn Marais Trio featuring an acoustic blues set full of expressive melodies and harmonies;
  • Logan Staats, a Mohawk sing-songwriter and winner of the musical competition show The Launch whose powerful performance is rooted in honest storytelling and reflection.  

Registration is not required for this free event from 7 to 9 p.m. at 200 Doug Duncan Dr. Some tables and seating will be available on a first-come, first serve basis. Bringing your own seating is also permitted.
