Concerts Under the Elms: Eight to the Bar

REGISTRATION IS LIMITED AND REQUIRED.

Join the RIHS for the return of Concerts Under the Elms! This year is the 24th season of the much-loved series and will feature ALL NEW bands, as well as the chance to pre-order refreshments that can be picked up upon arrival on the John Brown House Lawn.

July 15th will feature Eight to the Bar. Drawing its musical influences from American roots music — swing, boogie-woogie, and Motown, Eight to the Bar is known for its outstanding instrumentalists and vocal arrangements.

All concerts will begin at 6:30pm. Guests are welcome to bring their own chairs and coolers, or to order picnic boxes courtesy of Pranzi or beverages courtesy of Bottles Fine Wine.

Picnic boxes serve two and include a display of imported parma prosciutto, wild boar soppressata, salami, pepperoni, Parmigiano Reggiano, provolone, mozzarella, blue cheese, cheddar, roasted walnuts, artichoke hearts, local honey, fresh figs or dried apricots, and an array of gourmet olives served with artisan breads. Boxes are $25 with a portion of the purchase benefitting the RIHS. Please note, box orders must be placed at least 1 week before the concert.

Concert registrants will receive details in their confirmation regarding how to order from Bottles Fine Wine for delivery to the event.
