What a great way to break up your work week by experiencing soothing international cultural live music on Wednesday nights during the Summer Nights music series held at the Penn Museum. This exuberant musical series begins June 26 and ends September 04, 2019.

Get to experience music curated by different individuals in a laid-back fun atmosphere, to where you can hang out on chairs, benches, stage-front seating, the lawn or just mingle with others while the music plays in the background at the museum’s Stoner Courtyard.
