Central Library Concert Series
San Diego Musicians Celebrate the New Central Library!
Inaugural Concert Series, 2013
San Diego Public Library is pleased to announce the schedule for its special inaugural Fall season of the annual concert series in the new Central Library auditorium. The series, which includes performers from some of the finest ensembles in San Diego, is made possible by the Friends of Central Library, the San Diego Public Library matching fund program, and public and private donations. The concerts are very important to the musicians in the series because they provide a venue for them to perform locally. The community has responded enthusiastically as well, as shown by steadily growing attendance by musicians, music lovers, music appreciation students and residents of the greater San Diego area.

- When: Sundays at 2:30 p.m. Programs usually last one hour.
