MUSIC ON THE SQUARE

Join Strathmore Square, an arts-focused, healthy-living-centric residential community at the Grosvenor-Strathmore Metro Station, in partnership with The Music Center at Strathmore for Music on The Square.  On every second and fourth Tuesday of the month, from now through October, hear Strathmore’s Artist in Residence (AIR) alumni and other local favorites perform on the neighborhood’s 1.25-acre community park. Enjoy treats from Clayboys Shaved Ice and sample favorites from local food trucks. In addition to the musical performances, every second Tuesday of the month will have kid-friendly activities from MyGym Potomac, and every fourth Tuesday of the month will have wellness-inspired offerings, including outdoor fitness classes.

Music on The Square is free to the public; no prior registration is required to attend these events.
