Free Carillon Concerts: July 23 & 30

5:30–6:30 p.m.

Two Nights Only!

You are invited to pack a picnic and enjoy our carillon bells from our front lawn/labyrinth, 5:30 – 6:30 p.m. for two Thursday evenings in July!

July 23rd features carillonneur Isaiah Suchman. Isaiah is from Providence, RI, and a 2025 graduate of Yale University, where he studied carillon and served as co-chair of the Yale Guild of Carillonneurs. He currently teaches high school in Anhui Province, China, and hopes to see the country’s first carillon built there.

July 30th features carillonneur Margaret Angelini who discovered the carillon by opening the window of her dorm room on her second day at Wellesley College, and 
promptly fell in love with the sound of the bells. She now teaches carillon at Wellesley College. Also featured on July 30 are free ice cream treats, courtesy of the Spirit Team, while supplies last. 

Please bring your family/friends, chairs or blankets, and refreshments to the front lawn of the church in West Hartford Center. Free parking is available in the church parking lot, which is accessible from Farmington Ave.
