Thursday Night Music Series: Putting the West in Country & Western

Evening programs are back at Chandler Museum! Join us every Thursday night in April to explore, socialize, be inspired, and have fun with a common theme—music! Putting the West in Country & Western: How Chandler and the Valley Helped Create Modern Country Music When the Dust Bowl pushed a wave of migrants toward Chandler, music came with them. Listen in while local historian William Holly reveals how patterns of migration led to a new kind of music, as artists from Buck Owens to Waylon Jennings put Chandler and the Valley on the country music map. Arrive before the program to experience the exhibition “Picturing Home: Dust Bowl Migrants in Chandler,” opening March 8, 2022.
