I've been reflecting on the recent death of Chuck Girard and how privileged we were to host him in concert at the Music Factory last Fall. Here is a very interesting and moving tribute to him by his daughter. I found myself often in tears while listening. Check out this video from this search, Chuck Girard tribute by his daughter

In this episode, I share a very personal tribute to my dad, Chuck Girard. From his teenage years as a session singer in Los Angeles, to his encounter with Jesus during the Jesus Revolution, to a lifetime of ministering through music, his story is not only a testament to how one man can impact the wo...

A Unique Event & Concert Venue

Wouldn’t it be great to have a local concert venue where you could hear high-quality, diverse styles of music, in a beautiful, clean, family-friendly environment? Well, look no further! The Heart of the City Music Factory is a beautiful Victorian-style, 5-star rated rentable concert and event venue for weddings, receptions, anniversaries, luncheons, birthdays, etc., and is located on the second floor of the Old Milk Factory on the Rum River in historic Anoka, MN. Being in the Music Factory is like gathering in a large Victorian home with vintage wallpaper, a fireplace on stage, balcony with a great view, gorgeous décor and an intimate seating capacity of 137.

Since 1996, Heart of the City has been focused on racial reconciliation through the concerts and recordings of the multi-ethnic Heart of the City Band. Heart of the City has traveled and performed for thousands of people in various settings up to 30 times a year since 1996, but we’ve never had a home base. As of the summer of 2018, the Heart of the City Music Factory became the home base, recording studio and sound stage for the Heart of the City Band, as well as, a music venue that features a regular concert series of multi-ethnic, diverse artists – both local and national – going from Classical to Jazz to Reggae, Gospel, Rock, Singer/Songwriter and many others, with the continued mission of bringing people together in a positive, faith-based setting to build bridges and enjoy great music and entertainment together. The high quality sound, light and video system makes for a great listening experience no matter where you are seated, and the caliber of the artists in concert is always top notch!

Our concerts are ticketed and open to the general public. For any type of rental, food and drink must be catered in by licensed caterers. Additionally, the Music Factory is not handicapped accessible.

For information about renting the Music Factory and to see our prices and policies, contact Dan Adler at [email protected] or call 612-990-6192.
