The parking lot of the Brewery Arts Center at West King and Minnesota streets was jammed with fans of legendary rock band Jefferson Starship, which brought down the house during Concert Under the Stars Wednesday night at the Brewery Arts Center in downtown Carson City.

Wednesday’s annual music fundraiser for The Greenhouse Project marked the 10th anniversary of both Concert Under the Stars and the non-profit sustainable community garden program that helps feed people in the Nevada state capital.

Jefferson Starship took the Minnesota Street Stage shortly after 8 p.m. Wednesday night following the performance of special guest music group Midnight North, which opened the festival fundraiser with its own stylish, unique brand of Americana harmonies.
