2012 Season!
Performing Arts Series Call to Sponsors
In 2011, more than 7,000 people visited our parks to see Bloomington's finest musicians and classic movies. Only through the generous patronage of local businesses and organizations is the Bloomington Parks and Recreation Department able to provide FREE concerts and movies to the community. Sponsorship of the Performing Arts Series supports local performers and the community and provides excellent business exposure.
Become a part of the Performing Arts Series' 28-year history of providing free, family-friendly entertainment for the people of Bloomington! Call 349-3725 to find out more about how you can sponsor a concert or movie at one of Bloomington's beautiful city parks this summer.
"We love the concerts in the parks!! Thank you."
