Feeding the Soul of the City

The Feeding the Soul of the City concert series provides the community with half-hour lunchtime concerts that feature a variety of musical styles, predominantly classical, jazz, and folk/Celtic.  They are held in the St. Paul’s Sanctuary and offer a pleasant and casual respite from the work and school day with music performed in a beautiful setting.

The concerts are free and open to the pubic.  Light refreshments are served for free.  One can also bring a lunch to enjoy before or during the concert.  A few minutes of prayer are held in the church shortly before the performance.

The concert series runs from September through early June (excluding January).  All performances are held from 12:15 to 12:45 p.m.once a month on a Tuesday.
