Concord on the Ray Arts Index

25.35 out of 100

The Index measures a town’s live music and cultural life in six parts: its venues, how often shows happen, its festivals, the groups behind them, local government support, and heritage. It rates towns, never venues or artists, and missing information is never counted as zero.
