Summer Concert Series
Three concerts have been planned for this summer in the Chapel. All concerts are one hour and will be held on Saturday evenings at seven o'clock.

June 27: MICHAEL CALMÈS, tenor

July 18: TIMOTHY SMITH, organ

August 29: ANDREW GORDON, piano

Tenor Michael Calmes' concert will delight the audience with songs from America, the British Isles, China, and grand opera. In July, hear the full range of the Schantz pipe organ in the Chapel with a rousing program by Executive Director Timothy Smith. Russian masterpieces will be featured on the glorious nine-foot Knabe concert grand piano in August with the artistry of Andrew Gordon.

The concerts are open to the community and there is no charge for admittance. Instead, a free-will offering will be taken to support the Building Restoration Fund.
