Step out of the daily grind each Wednesday in April for a midweek lunch hour to relax, refresh, and renew yourself with some of our area’s best musicians on stage at the lush, green Palace Park at 220 DeSiard Street (beside the old Palace Department Store). Public parking is available on the street and at 4th and DeSiard Street. Round up your friends, bring a picnic of your favorites, or treat yourself to a $6 box lunch, with tea, on site from Newk’s Eatery. Mulhearn’s will again provide free cookies to make the events extra sweet! Picnic blankets and lawn chairs are encouraged! Of course, the performances are FREE, thanks to our sponsors Mulhearn’s, Newk’s Eatery, The Palace, Paramount Healthcare Consultants of West Monroe, Northeast Delta Human Services Authority, First Horizon Bank, and the City of Monroe. Here’s who’s on stage: We’ll swing into the next outing of the Series with a jazzy, bluegrass jam. You may have heard Mandolin State at popular local venues such as Flying Tiger Brewery with their unique brand of progressive bluegrass performances. Today they’ll treat us to their incredible talent and relaxed, easy stage presence as the second outing of the Series.
