1st Annual Rock-N-Rescue

Join us for a FREE community event! Get ready for a Puppy Photobooth, where you can snap unforgettable photos with your cute four-legged friends or with our special guest, St. Bernard, Lola (from 2-3:30pm, pictured below). We’ll also be hosting Puppy Adoption Stations in partnership with Labrador Retriever Rescue, Maricopa County Animal Care & Control and Kai’s Place Cat Rescue, giving families the chance to meet lovable dogs or cats who are looking for their forever homes.
For our younger guests, we’ll have FREE kids’ activities throughout the event and a tropical sno truck for treats, making this a perfect outing for the whole family. And of course, it wouldn’t be Music Maker Workshops without music! Enjoy live performances featuring our very own MMW Rock Bands, showcasing talented students rocking the stage with high-energy sets that are fun for all ages. Special guest Brenda Mulkey will be the day’s emcee!
Whether you’re a music lover, a dog lover, or just looking for a joyful community event, this is a day you won’t want to miss. Come support live music, local rescue efforts, and our amazing young musicians — and maybe even meet your new best furry friend!
