Advent Concert Series
Advent Concert Series
Now in its 16th year (yes, 16 years!), the Advent Concert Series offers intimate noonday concerts each Wednesday during Advent, featuring both sacred and secular Christmas music. Each concert is at NOON and will last approximately 50 minutes. Free and open to all, these performances provide a peaceful moment of reflection during the busy holiday season. Donations are welcome and 100% goes to support the artists and publicity.
