Come spend time with us and savor the season! Experience thought-provoking exhibitions and fun programs for all ages. Enjoy breezy, late Thursday evenings while you picnic on our beautiful grounds and take in the music of Ben Malynoski Plus 2 (saxophone trio) in the courtyard.

Enjoy Mocktails from The Cosmic Cup Mobile Bar, order picnics to-go from area restaurants, or bring your own food. Feel free to bring your own blankets or lawn chairs. We can’t wait to see you!

Music will be held outdoors or moved indoors during inclement weather.

Made possible through the generous support of Greenfield Savings Bank. Live music is co-presented by Northampton Jazz Festival.
