Music and a love for all people were defining attributes of Moss’s life. These qualities drove the Pieratt and Jenkins families decision to stage a concert in Moss’s honor. Ultimately, the families wanted to stage a lasting event that Moss and other children would enjoy attending with their families.
This year, MossFest will air as a virtual concert through the ABC Kite Fest and Moss Pieratt Foundation websites and will feature performances by a variety of fan-favorite children’s musicians and Grammy Award-winning artists!
