Summer Concert Series for 2013!
Tuesdays from 6:30-8 pm
Our summer concert series is back in 2013. We are really excited to host five concerts this summer here at the library. Many thanks to the Fairfax Parks and Recreation for funding assistance to make this summer's concerts possible.
Each concert will take place on the lawn outside the Middle School Gym. If it is rainy, we will move inside to the gym.
Bring a picnic basket, lawn chairs, a blanket, and enjoy the music!
