Tunes in the Park will return this Saturday with a performance from the Rhythm City Band.

The free outdoor concert series is held every summer in the amphitheater in Greer City Park.

After a hiatus in 2020, Tunes in the Park has been back on the third Saturday of each month this summer.

Children from the Greer Cultural Arts Council’s Camp ARK (Arts Reaching Kids) will cap their summer experience by staging School House Rock Jr. this weekend.

Shows will run August 13-15 at the Edward R. Driggers City of Greer Center for the Arts.

All performances are free to the public.
