Several Mississauga artists will be in the spotlight in a September concert series taking place at the Celebration Square amphitheatre.
The Love Local Music series will run Thursday and Friday nights from Sept. 8 to 29.
The series will include many local artists that have honed their craft in the city. They will also share their stories through their music and how their communities made them the people they are today.
