Autism Rocks 12

The Ken Anderson Alliance is pleased to announce that Autism Rocks 12 presented by the Heidt Family Foundation was a record success grossing over $41,000!

This year’s event, held on February 28, 2021 at the Blue Note Harrison, was our first-ever combination in-person and virtual event. Five bands performed before a limited capacity audience while the free virtual broadcast streamed live to homes and watch parties held at 16 different area bars.  The event was emceed by local comedian Steve Caminiti and featured Ken Anderson interviews with celebrities as well as discussions about the mission and vision of the Ken Anderson Alliance to provide live, work, and engage opportunities for adults with developmental disabilities.
