Sunday Afternoon Live is a small outreach group sponsored by First Congregational Church of Battle Creek. Our mission is to enrich the cultural life of the greater Battle Creek Community and to continue the tradition of the church (FCCBC) as a patron of artistic creativity and expression. We endeavor to do this by sponsoring a series of free concerts that present musical artistry that is exciting, beautiful, varied and enjoyable. The concerts are presented in the sanctuary of our church, which possesses great acoustical characteristics that our guest artists appreciate as well as our patrons. The quartet Blackthorn represents the Irish/Celtic genre, which has been popular with a wide variety of patrons.
