Ouibache Music Festival
is a roots music festival that takes place in beautiful Columbian Park located in the heart of Lafayette, IN. Friends from all over the world will gather to play tunes, share stories, and commune with one another. The laid-back attitude of the festival allows music lovers of all types and skill levels to take time away from the daily routine of life and just enjoy the sweetness of hearing a guitar or singing a song.
2024 Bryan Metzger Memorial Legacy Award
Julie Doan Baumann was selected for this year’s recipient because of her dedication to the students at the Tippecanoe School Corp., where she teaches music to more than 900 students at Hershey and Dayton elementary schools. In her application, Julie explained that she would be using the award to help create a new curriculum for her classes, where she plans to introduce her students to traditional music by implementing ukuleles into her lessons. The award will go toward the purchase of ukuleles, music, stands and tuners.
