Music in the Garden costs Summer Sessions & Lifelong Learning over $20,000 each year, and we need your financial support for the 2026 season. While these concerts are free to attend, they are not free to produce. Any contribution, large or small, helps ensure this beloved summer tradition can continue.
This year, we created the Music in the Garden Society for those who wish to become patrons of the arts. Anyone who gives $250 or more becomes a patron and a member of the Music in the Garden Society. Patrons receive a season pass to all 13 FREE concerts as a thank-you for their support (consider it a tongue-in-cheek thank-you and a great conversation starter!).
Whether your child is homeschooled or attends public school there is a class that can fit their schedule. Spring 365 SMART Academy has multi-week classes, workshops on FNSBSD no-school days, and Spring Break Camps.
Choose from our International or AVÀÇÂÛ̳n destinations for your next informative and exciting travel program. Combine learning with the fun of travel! Try 4 new trips to Toolik, Fabulous France in September and Journey to Japan in November.
