Tribute for Lisa Cretsinger

Nov. 1, 2022

Plethora of performances sponsored by Groovacious. This has helped many local performers develop their solo and band music. There were Open Mics for many years, the legendary Groovefest, Cedar Canyon concerts, and store performances. 

She is on the board of the

Iron County Acoustic Music Association.

In addition to nurturing musicians, she has also given performance space for poetry readings and exhibition space for visual artists.

She has done extensive writing, including a play.

One of her performance pieces was reciting portions of Moby Dick at Groovacious while wearing her great great grandfathers suit from 1894. 

30 years of service
