The Summer Series at Shenkman Arts Centre is a free concert series happening every Thursday this summer highlighting the talents of local artists and performers.
We love being able to introduce the kids to new music and cultural performances, and what better way than with a free concert at Shenkman Arts Centre!
Free Outdoor Concerts!
These outdoor concerts (or indoor in the upper lobby in case of rain) are happening all summer long, with each week featuring a different artists.
The series is between 12:30 and 1:30 pm so you should be able to squeeze in a show even if you have little ones with a nap time and older kids will appreciate the live music. This family-friendly show is for all ages.
You can find full details on their website or visit their Facebook Events page to set reminders fro yourself.
