Symphonic Band to perform June 20

The Township of East Brunswick Division of Recreation and the East Brunswick Arts Commission will present the Garden State Symphonic Band in an outdoor concert set for 7 p.m. June 20 on the lawn at the Community Arts Center, 440 Dunhams Corner Road, East Brunswick. The event is the first in a series of free summer events planned by the township.

The band, a professional musical ensemblemodeled after the Sousa Band of the early 20th century, will play selections from movies, band standards and Broadway tunes.

Guests are invited to bring blankets and lawn chairs. In the event of rain, the concert will move to the indoor theater at the center. Via Dolce Café will be on site offering gelato and pastries.

The program is made possible in part by funds from the New Jersey State Council on the Arts/Department of State, a partner agency of the National Endowment for the Arts, through a grant provided by the Middlesex County Cultural and Heritage Commission/ Board of Chosen Freeholders and McDonagh Chrysler/Jeep/Dodge, East Brunswick.
