The Center Stage

09/02/2026

One year ago, many of you took a chance on this tiny vision of creating a space where musician, songwriters, singers, in those who are inspired by music could come together and jam out with one another. It truly warms my heart that next Tuesday we will be launching our 26-27 season for Tuesday Night Live!

To be a part of this program means that you care about what it means to fellowship, network, and inspire the next generation of music. You cherish the sounds of your fellow neighbors. From Rock to R&B to Country and Neo-soul, you can do it all right here at the West Southern Pines Center.

Continue to be inspired and let the music use your heart! Don’t hesitate to reach out to us if you have a vision and event or just wanna host the night with us. WE GOT YOU COVERED!

SN: Elise Zwatteri loves all of you for making this happen. Without you there is no Tuesday Night Live!!!🫶🏽
