In case of bad weather, the concerts will be moved to the Parish Center at St. Andrew’s Church, which is located at the corner of East Main and Woolsey Streets. We will announce if a concert’s being moved on our Facebook page on the afternoon of the concert.

You can also find highlights and entire performances from last year’s Concerts on the Waterfront series on our YouTube channel. We hope to see you at some, or ALL, of the concerts this summer!
