HARBOR PARK SOUND GARDENSunday May 2712 - 5 pm The Harbor Park Sound Garden is a family-friendly, free, outdoor event open to all ages and will take place from 12 – 5 p.m. on Sunday, May 27. The Sound Garden event will celebrate the coming of spring, and the history, geography, and ecology of Harbor Park and Lake Superior.

The Sound Garden will feature a temporary sound installation, combining live musicians and a small choir with 35 small, battery-powered remote speakers distributed throughout the park, each playing a different part of the larger piece of music – a spatial concert you can walk through! In addition to the sound installation, the event will feature visual art elements by local artists, live poetry, history, and storytelling and interactive opportunities.

The Sound Garden is created by Minenapolis-based award-winning composer/director James Everest.
