Beautiful music from 2-6pm in the bandstand at the Dunedin Botanic Garden.

Jazz, solo guitar, klezmer and a little bit of indie songcraft combine for this family-oriented afternoon of acoustic music. Bring a picnic, a blanket and enjoy.

“This is a first for us and we are very pleased to be working with the DCC and the Botanic Gardens staff in organizing this event for the Dunedin public. We think this could be the beginning of a beautiful relationship.”
