We are bringing back this magical, two-day event! Music in the Trees is an outdoor event showcasing a diverse group of instrumentalists and vocalists in and among the trees near Belwin’s Education Center.

This year’s event features live performances from an eclectic group of artists that includes Gospel and Hip Hop vocalists, percussionists, a Zither player, jazz musicians, and more. Each day will feature a different roster.

This activity is made possible by the voters of Minnesota through grants from the Minnesota State Arts Board and the Metropolitan Regional Arts Council, thanks to a legislative appropriation from the arts and cultural heritage fund.
