Bennington Museum is so grateful for the anonymous grant that has supported the Concerts in the Courtyard season.
This grant allows us to cover our operating expenses, pay the musicians for their services, and keep this popular music series free to the public.
In the 2024 summer season we offered 15 free outdoor concerts (46 individual musicians) and brought over 1,500 people to our doorstep, some of whom had never been to the Museum before, and some of whom had attended for multiple years and make it a hallmark of their summer experience.
The Museum has received funding for 12 concerts in the 2025 season.
Musicians please apply HERE by April 1.
Concerts will take place outdoors from 5-7pm every summer Friday. The Museum will remain open late on those days as well. In addition to the music, there will be free children’s activities, and food and beverages which may be purchased from the Avocado Pit.
In the event of rain, cancellation will be posted by 2pm on the Museum’s social media pages.
Mark your calendars for these great events now!
