between the artist and the audience |

small community |

implement |

Once a house concert venue
has been selected, Thrive Station works to connect the audience with an energy

sustainable environmental resources. Savings are passed on in the form of
donations to the GRPF.
Thrive Station evolved out
of the Songwirters Original Showcase Series founded in 2001.
