The Art Center Highland Park (TAC) is kicking off National Picnic Month with an evening designed for pure summer joy: Music on the Lawn, a relaxed, family‑friendly outdoor concert featuring Chicago multi‑instrumentalist and singer‑songwriter Danny Cohen. Guests are invited to spread out on the TAC lawn with blankets, lawn chairs, and their favorite picnic treats while enjoying Cohen’s blend of original music and classics spanning the 1950s to today.
In true Highland Park spirit, the event is offered on a “pay what you can” basis, ensuring that everyone in the community can join in. TAC is also partnering with its longtime neighbors at Norton’s Restaurant, who will offer 10% off carry‑out orders for attendees who show their digital ticket confirmation.
Cohen, known for his work with Midwest bands including Terriers, Jenni Stark, and Sewingneedle, brings an eclectic, soulful energy perfect for a summer evening under the trees.
Whether you’re a music lover, a picnic enthusiast, or simply looking for a moment of connection, TAC invites you to gather, unwind, and celebrate creativity in the open air.
