There’s about to be a lot of rumblin’ going on at downtown’s Jácome Plaza, so don’t let the grumblin’ of your stomach throw off the beat.

Now in its eighth year, the two-day DUSK Music Festival that incorporates art and culinary treats is taking place on Saturday, November 9 and Sunday, November 10.

The downtown festival features performances by more than 30 artists on three different stages, making it a rather diverse entertainment experience. In addition to the entertainment, Tucson FEASTS will be in full effect to keep everyone’s energy levels to the max.

Tickets to DUSK start at $75 for one-day passes or $140 for two-day passes.

Matt Sterner

At a very young age, Matt Sterner was gifted with the artistic ability to masterfully roll a burrito to the highest of standards, but the wrapped medley of delicious innards wasn’t his first love. Matt’s first true love was a combination of reading, writing, and creating. He grew up reading comics, the ingredients list of his shampoo and conditioner bottles, choose-your-own-adventure books, and the Scrabble dictionary — something he found useful when challenging his grandmother to a game.

He attended college at New Mexico State University and graduated with a degree in Digital Filmmaking. One of his favorite classes was screenwriting because he became responsible for the story’s birth before it came to life on-screen. After school, Matt took on numerous positions at a local television station in Tucson. From dealing out stories about heartbreak to producing “fluffier” content for a lifestyle broadcast, he learned what it takes to adapt to the many emotions the world of media can stir. Since 2017, Matt has dabbled in the culinary world of Tucson as well as San Diego, California from time to time.

If you’re in the mood for strange stories, head over to his pride and joy, wonkytimes.com. And in case you’re curious — yes, after all of this time, he still manages to roll a killer burrito.
