Escape the heat with music at this free indoor music fest! Experience how culture influences music—and vice versa—as three diverse musical genres perform under one (air conditioned) roof. From bluegrass vibes, to cool jazz tunes, to salsa rhythms you can’t help but dance to, enjoy these energizing live bands throughout the day. In between sets, explore the Museum on a scavenger hunt to earn prizes, or enjoy some cider tasting with New England Cider Company. Don’t forget to visit the on-site food truck for a relaxing picnic break! Open to the public, all ages welcome.
