The Hammond Performing Arts Series began in Chestnut Hill nineteen years ago as a way to provide talented musicians with performance opportunities, and to enrich the cultural life of the communities that Hammond’s network of offices serve. The series proved so successful in Chestnut Hill that it has been expanded to Boston, Concord, Hingham, Lexington and Weston.

Reservations for the April 6 concert are currently being accepted. If you are interested in attending, please email Rachael Carlisle at rcarlisle@hammondre.com or call 781-749-3650 to reserve your complimentary seats.
