Artist on the Plaza Tuesdays and Thursdays, Jun 1-Sep 2 12-1pm Old Capitol Plaza Free

Outdoor gigs

Singer/songwriter Tom Irwin opens the season for the Springfield Area Arts Council’s Artist on the Plaza summer music series. These noon-hour concerts held from June 1 to Sept. 2 outside on the Old Capitol Plaza located between Fifth and Sixth streets at Adams are wonderful opportunities to take a sack lunch to work, find a park bench and eat while listening to great music. Every Tuesday and Thursday a different singer, group or instrumentalist will entertain the crowd.
