Carla Clark | For The Republic The Mycota band performs during HutchFest 2024 at the Crump Theatre, Columbus, Ind., Saturday, April 19, 2024.
Hutchfest, a local music festival launched last year at The Commons, took place on Friday and Saturday, with a 21-and-older night at The Commons and a night for all ages at The Crump.
Organized by the Landmark Columbus Foundation and local musician Ben Wever, money raised from the event will benefit the foundation, The Crump and the Miller House and Garden.
Named in honor of Columbus local Hutch Schumaker, the festival hosted pop-rock cover band Stone Carnival, Indianapolis-based band Mycota, and local teen ensemble Electric Symphony.
Both nights had a purple theme, with purple lighting, decorations and even cotton candy.
