MORE ABOUT US:
From May through October our two-hour 'Concerts On The Creek' (typically Saturday events, although there are exceptions) start at 7pm. From November through April, most are matinees that start at 3pm. Our Sunday 'Inspiration On The Creek' events are one-hour matinees, and they start at 3pm. Doors open one hour before each concert. Seating capacity is 150. An online pre-concert donation ($5 minimum - refer to the list above) ensures you'll be counted in the 150 maximum regardless of your arrival time. Don't like online giving?

The suggested minimum 'at-the-door' donation is $10, but all amounts are welcome. <Click here for more details about our concert history, sponsors, and donation options>.
