Peonies bloom at the Georgeson Botanical Garden in 2021. The garden will host live music on Thursdays throughout the summer.
The ÀÖ»¢Ö±²¥ Music in the Garden concert series will kick off on May 26 at the Georgeson Botanical Garden, offering 12 weeks of family-friendly performances throughout the summer.
The series, which is organized by the ÀÖ»¢Ö±²¥ Summer Sessions and Lifelong Learning, will be held at 7 p.m. Thursdays through Aug. 11. Concerts are free, but donations to support the botanical garden are welcome.
