When the coronavirus forced The Front Porch to shut its doors, the downtown venue kept live music alive with its Save the Music weekly concert series, featuring livestreamed performances by more than 100 local artists over the course of the year. Thanks to an anonymous donation, all musicians were compensated for their time—for many, the only paid gig they could get during the pandemic. Music lovers watching from home also pitched in, raising more than $20,000 for nonprofits in need.
