Join us on Saturday October 17, 2026, as we celebrate National Arts and Humanities Month with an array of experiences highlighted by special live music concerts presented by the Home Sweet Home Band and Two Rivers Fife and Drum.
The Home Sweet Home Band features talented local musicians who will share songs that entertained and stirred emotions in soldiers and civilians during the Civil War along with more current selections inspired by that pivotal period in our nation's history.
The Two Rivers Fife and Drum duo of Shirley Gauthier and Neil Rutland will bring an America's 250th flair to the event sharing the martial airs that urged soldiers into battle since our nation's founding.
Visitors can also watch cannons fire ahead of each concert set and discover how the work of engaging the enemy with artillery was as much an art as it was a science during the Civil War. Works created by past Artists in Residence will be on display in the park's visitor center.
