Rick Epting Info
Friends of the late Rick Epting have gathered to continue his legacy of supporting the Arts in Skagit County with this lively showcase of local talent and humor. The evening features a reunion concert by Rick’s former bandmates in the Future Pastures Band, along with special performances by META Performing Arts and the Theatre Arts Guild, and appearances by vocalist Lynette McKormick, storyteller Teresa Vaughn, Don Wick, and others.

All proceeds go to select Skagit County arts organizations in memory of Rick Epting, one of the founding members of the Lincoln Theatre Center Foundation and the Skagit Performing Arts Council (SPAC). Rick was instrumental in the restoration campaign for the Lincoln Theatre and the planning for the new McIntyre Hall.
