The warmest welcome back home to Boston.

We couldn't have asked for a better evening for Inspire Arts & Music's Concert in the Park last night! Thank you to everyone who joined us in the park and online for our 13th annual celebration of the arts. We are so grateful for our fellow performers, HYPE, Riverside Theatre Works, and Blessed Sacrament Colorguard who helped us show off some of Boston's best!

And most of all, thank you to all of our supporters and sponsors who make events like this possible. The arts continue to thrive thanks to you!

That's a wrap on festival season! Over the last 6 weeks, Great East Music Festivals and Fantastic Festivals served more than 20,000 students, creating performance opportunities in three states for ensembles from across New England! We could not be prouder of the bands, choruses, and orchestras who took the stage this season at Great East and Fantastic Festivals.

We'd like to extend an extra special thank you to our partner Pearl/Adams Concert Percussion for providing the percussion instruments to make it all happen!
