Posted

Join your neighbors to enjoy live music from five groups at the Seminary Hill Natural Area on Saturday morning, Aug. 26, during the sixth Music on the Hill event.

Music will be provided by:

• Jean Stewart, who will be playing her harp; 

• The Department of Peace, who will play old favorite Americana and folk songs for attendees to sing along with; 

• Harmony Ridge, who will be playing guitar and bodhran, which is  an Irish hand drum, while performing modern folk and Celtic songs; 

• Mukana Mbira, a group playing mbira, a thumb piano used in Zimbabwe; and 



• Gail Gibbard and friends, playing Irish tunes.

“I'm really happy with the variety of music being presented,” said Sue Beck, secretary and events chair for the Friends of the Seminary Hill Natural Area, and the coordinator of this event. “I'm hoping for a big crowd!”

The Friends of the Seminary Hill Natural Area are providing free cookies and refreshments for this family-friendly, all-ages event.

Music on the Hill will begin at 10 a.m. Aug. 26 and run until noon.

The event takes place in the Barner Drive parking lot at the eastern end of Locust Street, just a few blocks east of downtown Centralia.
