SAUGUS, MA — Saugus Iron Works National Historic Site will be partnering with the Saugus Library to host a community concert series this summer beginning on Wednesday, July 12 at 6 p.m. The concert series celebrates local musical talents in Essex County and creates opportunities for residents and visitors to engage with the site during evening hours.
“We are thrilled to be partnering with the Saugus Public Library for our third summer in a row to offer this fun for all ages concert series! Opening the park unit to the community in the evening is a way to meet our neighbors and welcome visitors who may not be able to explore the park during the day," said Jennifer Hardin, superintendent of Salem Maritime and Saugus Iron Works national historic sites. "Engaging with local musicians helps us provide expanded opportunities for the public to enjoy this amazing landscape in a new way.”
“The Saugus Public Library is pleased to be partnering again this year with the National Park Service and we're excited about this year's renewed series of eight free outdoor summer concerts,” said Alan Thibeault, Director of the Saugus Public Library “Our partnership with the Saugus Iron Works has been a real boon to the library and has provided enriching outdoor opportunities for our patrons. We're grateful to the NPS for making the historic Saugus Iron Works available in new ways to our citizens through programs and events such as this concert series, our outdoor Story Hours, and other family-friendly library events.”There will be a free concert at the park every Wednesday at 6 p.m. through Aug. 30, weather permitting. The concerts will be held on the upper lawn located at 234 Central Street in Saugus.
