Our Community Calendar is a volunteer-run resource offered to all qualified nonprofits. Community Calendar events are highlighted live, on-air throughout the day on KCPW. Featured events are chosen at random. You will also find all current Community Calendar events listed here at kcpw.org.

Following the criteria listed below, mail or bring professional materials (no handwritten signs please) promoting your event to the KCPW studios at 210 East 400 South, Suite 10, Salt Lake City, UT 84111. We’ll happily hang them in our window for all Library Square traffic to see.
To submit an event to the Community Calendar, the event must meet the following criteria:

Are you a fan of The Beatles? Do your toes start tapping at the thought of “Let it be”, “Hey Jude”, “Yellow Submarine” or “I want to hold your hand”? On April 17th, Salt Lake’s own BeatALS will bring their songs back to fight against ALS. Listen to live Beatles music performed by BeatALS and support families that are dealing with amyotrophic lateral sclerosis (ALS), also known as Lou Gehrig’s Disease. Bring your friends, grab your family, and load up the kids for a fun evening to support a good cause and hear the most iconic band come back to life.
League of Women Voters Salt Lake April General Meeting will host Dr. Angela Dunn, Executive Director of Salt Lake County Health Department and Prof. Phillip Singer of U of Utah Department of Public Science. They will discuss Is Public Health Broken? What did we learn from COVID? Has politics destroyed our public health system? Will we be ready for the next pandemic? or earthquake?
Thankfully (hopefully?), spring is upon us, and what better way to celebrate than with a breezy Kilby show. April’s Localized showcase features the dreamy, indie sounds of co-headliners Sharing and The Alpines alongside wunderkind openers Stage Fright. Come out to Kilby Court on Thursday, April 20 (doors at 7, music at 8) for the show. SLUG Localized is sponsored by Riso Geist.
