Concerts in the Park 2024
Enjoy this free live music series in the playground every other Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon throughout the summer. Hear sweet harmonies and laid back tunes as you watch over your tots at play. Little ones will like the family-friendly music and be captivated by the performers, but do not expect to hear “Wheels on the Bus” or other children’s tunes. These performers are here to enhance your day not to distract from play.
