The COD music faculty created Music Fridays @ Noon to showcase student, faculty, alumni and guest artists in a free, accessible daytime series of music performances and related events. The series is open to the entire COD community as a place where a broad spectrum of music is on display. Concerts are approximately one hour in length.

All events are free and begin at noon in MAC Room 140, unless otherwise noted. For more information, contact Matt Shevitz at, shevitzm@cod.edu.
