Ann Arbor Civic Band: Wednesday night concerts




There are many fun and free things to do on a summer evening in Ann Arbor, and this week we discovered a new one!

The Ann Arbor Civic Band is performing six Wednesday evenings at the band shell in West Park.  What a perfect way to spend an hour on a beautiful summer night.  We brought our camping chairs and joined the crowd on the hill, including families, little kids, some older kids riding scooters and bikes, and a couple of dogs out for an evening walk.

Get in the mood for Independance Day at the Tribute to the USA concert, take your little tykes to the children's concert, and don't miss the Sousa-style concert--Check out their schedule here.

If you are trying to get a young person interested in playing an instrument, this is your venue:  real people playing music outside, for a manageable length (45 minutes) concert of nice music--for an appreciative audience.
