PARKERSBURG — Artsbridge has announced the performance schedule for the upcoming 2025 Summer Music Series in City Park.

The Summer Music Series is provided by Artsbridge with support from the City of Parkersburg and local sponsors for each date.

“We have been working diligently since January to find a variety of local talent and fan favorites to perform this year,” said Kelsi Ullom, Artsbridge’s program coordinator.

Starting in June, from 6:30 to 8: p.m. Thursdays in City Park, summer music-goers can bring a lawn chair and enjoy music outside of the bandshell. This is a free event, however Artsbridge collects donations to support its 14 annual programs.

Hand fans will be available again this year thanks to sponsorships from Vaughan Kimes and Sir Speedy.

The series will run from June 5 to Aug. 28, taking off July 3 due to the holiday. Weather-related performance updates will be shared on Artsbridge’s Facebook page.
