Historic Washington State Park announces the annual summer concert series Music in the Park with the theme “Music that Binds us Together.” Free concerts will be held in July and August outside the 1874 Courthouse.

Music has been a favorite pastime that binds families and communities together. Residents of Washington in the 19th century enjoyed performing and listening to all types of music as a form of entertainment and fellowship with each other. Come and enjoy evenings of great music that bring us together as a community at Historic Washington State Park.

Guests are encouraged to bring lawn chairs or a blanket to sit on. Concerts begin at 7:30 p.m. The gift shop will be open for refreshments, and Williams’ Tavern Restaurant will be open from 11 a.m. to 7 p.m. for dining.
