Three Spectacular Evenings

12 Local & Regional Bands

The Life is Beautiful event is back for its third year with a decidedly “Quaran-Tune” twist. A three-night live stream event from Bishop Hill Creative Commons, a visual and performing arts cooperative located in Bishop Hill, Ill., is made possible by Heartland Connections. Concert organizer Joe Lee moved the event from in-person to live stream to meet evolving pandemic trends.

The concert is Friday through Sunday, August 14 to 16, from 5 to 9 p.m. each day. Live stream locations:

  • Heartland Connections Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/HeartlandConnections/live
  • NAMI Greater Mississippi Valley Facebook – https://www.facebook.com/NamiGreaterMississippiValley/live
  • NAMI Greater Mississippi Valley YouTube – YouTube Live:  https://youtube.com/channel/UCYeSgOfnlb0ddhZZmbensQg/live

Attending is free and donations are encouraged to support NAMI’s no-cost mental health education and support programs.
