This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through a grant from the Southeastern Minnesota Arts Council thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts & cultural heritage fund.

Bring a blanket, pack a picnic, and spend an evening in with good company and great music! This free concert series takes place in Northfield's beautiful parks on Wednesday evenings in June and July and August.

All performances start at 6:00 p.m. and are rain or shine! The bookmobile will be onsite at 5:30 p.m. for checking out books and signing up for library cards. Bringing little ones? Join us for storytime on the lawn at 5:30 p.m. before each show.

The Summer Concert Series is a joint effort by Northfield Public Library, Northfield Public Schools Community Services, and the City of Northfield. For those who need a sturdier seat, Age-Friendly Northfield will be bringing its 52 red chairs.
