TUCSON, Ariz. (KGUN) — The Tucson nonprofit Groundworks is hosting its second annual "Camp Groundworks" to fundraise for young artists.

It will showcase over 20 local musical artists in a live-stream telethon on Friday August 25, and Saturday August 26.

The camp's purpose is to raise $20,000 and build a recording studio, and to pay youth performers and musicians. The nonprofit is also hoping to offset its operating costs with the funds collected.

Groundworks said it serves artists ages 14-24, promoting music and arts in Tucson.

Groundworks offers activities like:

  • Live music every Friday & Saturday night
  • New gallery shows once per month
  • Comic book library
  • Educational workshops
  • Community space for meetings, markets and classes
