The Art of the Duo performance’s New Hampshire tour is in collaborations with the Arts Alliance of Northern NH. The performance is made possible in part by a donation from the Byrne Foundation, and is funded in part by the Expeditions program of the New England Foundation for the Arts, made possible with funding from the National Endowment for the Arts, with additional support from the six New England state arts agencies.

The Summer Concert Series is held at the historical and acoustically outstanding Union Church, 133 Old Church Rd in Claremont. The series is by donation, and while contributions are a vital part of making the series possible, all are welcome regardless of ability to donate. Concerts with an “*” designate performances that are part of the “two day” performance experience in collaboration with the Saint Gaudens Memorial and performed at the Saint-Gaudens National Historic Site in Cornish.
