In 2019, Bennington Museum began an outdoor Friday night concert series in the Museum’s courtyard. Last year, over 1,000 people visited the Museum on Friday evenings to enjoy the food, music, outdoor art, kids activities, and good company.

Thanks to an anonymous grant, Bennington Museum is pleased to be able to offer this popular event once more this summer. Performances will begin on June 7nd and run through August 30, 2024 (13 weekends), and will be offered free of charge to the public. Groups will be paid an average of $600 regardless of weather and will be allowed to collect tips from the audience.

All events take place from 5-7pm on Fridays.

Concerts will be cancelled in the event of a 60% chance of rain by 2pm on Fridays, and efforts will be made to reschedule on a mutually convenient date.
