Summer Serenades Concerts
This popular summer concert series combines the spontaneous sounds of nature and people enjoying a park with the orchestrated sounds of musicians at Stark Parks locations and other township and city parks throughout Stark County. The free concerts will feature small groups of musicians from the Canton Symphony Orchestra. Music begins at 6:30 p.m.
Supported by the Mary Renkert Wendling Foundation, Rotary Clubs of Stark County, Visit Canton, Arts in Stark, Stark County Foundation Summertime Kid's Program, and Friends of Stark Parks.
What to Expect?
The performance is around 60 minutes with a casual program of light classics, pops, patriotic, and jazz and/or folk repertoire. Everyone is invited to bring your favorite picnic food, games, and blanket or chair and enjoy the music and family friendly setting.
