The festival, beginning July 19 and concluding on August 3, will feature FREE concerts by the Northwest Indiana Symphony in 7 communities across Northwest Indiana and Illinois. Come early, bring your lawn chairs and blankets, relax and enjoy the music! Everyone is welcome.
“I think our concerts in the park are a special place where families and friends from our community can join us for an evening of wonderful music, friendship, and relaxation under the stars, said Maestro Kirk Muspratt, creator of the Music Festival. “Plus, it gives me the opportunity and pleasure to spread the word that exciting, moving symphonic music for everyone!”
