Do you love music and enjoy supporting the local arts community? Donate to Music at Noon, SHSMO’s new music series. Hosted at the Center for Missouri Studies, these free concerts feature musicians from Columbia and the Boone County area.
During the summer 2025 inaugural series, SHSMO featured Rochara Knight & Caleb Alexander, Anthony Wilkerson, and the Bait Shop Boys. In addition to celebrating Missouri musicians, these concerts serve as outreach for the CoMo Music Project, SHSMO’s collecting initiative to preserve and share Columbia’s local music scene.

Thank you for helping the Music at Noon series thrive! Your support raises awareness of SHSMO’s music and performing arts archival collections, brings people together with Missouri musicians, and creates opportunities for local talent to share their artistry with the community.
"It was really great to escape the summer heat and be able to listen to local bands! I loved that we were able to explore the gallery and building after, too!” – Elizabeth Bridges
