Family and friends of Claudette Osborne gathered at The Forks on Saturday for the 7th Annual "No Stone Unturned" concert.

Osborne was 21 when she went missing in Winnipeg in July 2008. Osborne's family and friends haven't seen her since.

Osborne's sister, Bernadette Smith, planned the concert series eight years ago to show support for others in the community who have lost loved ones.

"This is really to connect our community with our families and help our families know they aren't walking this journey alone," said Bernadette Smith, Osborne's sister. "This community supports them and they are their walking with them."

People took in a number of live performances by local artists at Oodena Celebration Circle as part of the Winnipeg event.

A candlelight vigil is being held at 10:00 p.m.
