The Coachella Valley is home to a tremendous amount of arts and entertainment from soloists to big band, cabaret to theatre, high school to mega-star performances. There's one place to find out about all of it and that's on The Desert Scene with Bonnie Gilgallon. Every Saturday morning at 11 am, Bonnie talks with those who are movin' it and shakin' it in music, dance, theatre, and fine art across the desert cities.

Archives of The Desert Scene are posted early in the week following each live broadcast of the program.
