Starting August 23, Gem City Nights returns to Downtown Laramie to bring the free music and arts series to Friday evenings with Laramie Main Street’s Farmer’s Market. This summer’s series, hosted by the Laramie Plains Civic Center's visual and performing arts facilities, will feature nine regional musicians, four pop-up art-making experiences for all ages, and sales and demos from local ceramicists.

Each Gem City Night, hosted Fridays from August 23 to September 13, will feature an all-ages drop-in workshop from 3 p.m. to 7 p.m. and two musical acts from 6 p.m. to 9 p.m. at the North side of the Laramie Train Depot.
