Join us September 6th for the first concert in our fall Arts-in-the-Parks concert series featuring the Holmes Brigade Shirkers.
The Holmes Brigade Shirkers began as a small group of musicians gathering around the campfire to entertain their fellow “pards.” Since those humble beginnings, they have quickly risen to prominence within the Civil War community, becoming the premier minstrel group in the Four-State area. Dedicated to recreating an authentic historical experience, the group brings the sights and sounds of Civil War-era music to life for modern audiences. While they can still often be found playing by the fire, their shared passion and musical talents have led them to perform for increasingly larger crowds.
Their notable clients include the National Park Service, the Springfield, MO Public Library, the Republic, MO Chamber of Commerce, the Rogers, AR Historical Museum, and countless individuals who’ve caught a glimpse of Civil War camp life through their performances.
If severe weather is pending check Facebook and the park website for cancellations. If cancelled, there will not be a make up date.
