The Music in Nature Concert Series continues at the Harris Nature Center (3998 Van Atta Road, Okemos). Visitors will have the choice to listen to a LIVE performance at the Gathering Circle concert-style, while walking on the trails, during a picnic or while freely moving around the park.

Monte Pride will be the musical performance this month to close out the series from 4:00 pm to 6:00 pm on Sunday, September 19. Monte Pride features a Michigan born and raised singer-songwriter who brings stories of love, loss and healing to soul stirring songs on the guitar.

The 2021 Music in Nature Series kicked off in June with Pretty Shaky String Band, comprised of Michigan musicians of all levels, in fact many of Michigan’s finest folk musicians are Shaky alumni! This group plays old time music from Appalachia, the Midwest, Celtic and French-Canadian influence.

“The Harris Nature Center and HNC Foundation are excited to bring back Music in Nature this year after a pause in 2020,” stated Harris Nature Center Coordinator Kati Adams. “All those who attend can enjoy this outdoor event in amphitheater style seating in the woods or while walking the grounds and trails at the Harris Nature Center.”  

These events are sponsored by the Harris Nature Center Foundation and are free to the public. For more information about this and other programs offered at the Harris Nature Center, contact the center at hnc@meridian.mi.us or call 517.349.3866.
