CONCERT SERIES PLANNED FOR CANAL PLACE IN 2023

A free concert series at Canal Place is being planned for next year, thanks to a state grant and matching funds from stakeholders. During Tuesday’s Cumberland Mayor and City Council meeting, Mayor Ray Morriss announced there will be 10 concerts planned each summer, for the next three years, encompassing blues, jazz, rock, bluegrass and country. The series was awarded a state grant for $90,000,  but grant guidelines require a matching contribution.
