Summer concert series scheduled

The Rhode Island Historical Society will begin their "Concert under the Elms," 2007 summer series on June 28, at 6 p.m., with a performance by the American Band.

"Concerts under the Elms" are held Thursday evenings through Aug. 9 on the sweeping lawn of the society's historical John Brown House in Providence, located on Benefit Street between Power and Charlesfield Streets. Shaded by a canopy of elms, the John Brown House's broad lawn is a delightful venue for a summer evening's entertainment. Adult admission is $8 per person, with Rhode Island Historical Society members and children under 12 entering free.
