Upcoming music in Claremont

Posted on by

June in Claremont will offer some fun music, and none of it requires a big ticket price! This Thursday June 13th accordian play Walter Gomez will perform at the Claremont Farmers’ and Artisans’ Market, and the following week on June 20th Harper Angela Biggs will perform and lead harp demonstrations. The Claremont Farmers’ and Artisans’ Market is an excellent way to take in the work of local artists (the Claremont Arts Market brings juried artists), buy local produce and food (both arts of their own!), and enjoy music in the heart of Claremont’s Broad Street Park.

The last Wednesday in June we will also reprise the Beginner Harp Workshop. This popular workshop offers a hands on opportunity to explore the harp. Music experience is not required, and the instruments will be provided.

Also don’t forget to stop by the WCCMA website, where you can find out all about the upcoming Summer Concert Series performances!

Taiko anyone? And Fair updates!

Please be aware that this main entrance to Old Church Rd will not be open, and the detour set up will take you far out of your way. You can also take Main St to Twistback Rd and connect to Old Church Rd, or take Maple Ave to Plains Rd, and bear right onto Old Church Rd.
