The 10th Annual Easton Chamber Music Festival (ECMF) will return June 26–28, 2026, offering three free concerts that celebrate the richness and diversity of chamber music.
Founded to bring high-quality chamber music to the community, the festival presents both beloved classical masterworks and music by women composers, composers of color, and rarely performed composers. All concerts will take place at Covenant Congregational Church, 204 Center Street, Easton.
The festival’s renowned faculty artists will perform works by Oscar Navarro, Alfred Schnittke, Jacques Ibert, and Amy Beach on Friday, June 26, and music by Valerie Coleman, Samuel Barber, Dmitri Shostakovich, and Paul Juon on Saturday, June 27. Both concerts begin at 7:30 p.m., with pre-concert talks at 7:15 p.m.
In addition to the faculty performances, the festival serves as an intensive educational experience for musicians of all ages. This year, more than 40 participants from communities throughout Massachusetts and beyond will take part in the program.&nbsp;Reflecting the festival’s inclusive mission, participants span nearly eight decades in age, creating a uniquely intergenerational musical experience.
The festival will conclude with the Student Ensemble Showcase Concert on Sunday, June 28, at 5:00 p.m. The performance will feature festival participants who have spent the weekend rehearsing and receiving coaching from ECMF faculty artists.
All concerts are free and open to the public.
The Easton Chamber Music Festival is supported in part by grants and contributions from the Easton Cultural Council, Mansfield Cultural Council, Associated Chamber Music Players, Easton Lions Club, Covenant Congregational Church, Ames Free Library, and the generous support of local community members.

Mass Arts Center

Get ready to celebrate the nation’s 250th birthday with a massive party on the water. We’re taking things outside for an afternoon of music, food, and lake breezes. Our big top along the the Norton Reservoir is the place to be this summer.
Join us for an unforgettable outdoor festival that will bring people together, showcasing the best of what we love about summer celebrations.
<h3>Three incredible Bands in One Day!</h3>
This outdoor festival is not just about music; it’s a gathering of friends and family enjoying the summer vibes and community spirit.
First up, we’re welcoming back a local legend: <a href="https://jamesmontgomerybluesband.com/index.html" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">James Montgomery</a>. If you know New England music, you know James. He’s a blues powerhouse who’s played with everyone from Muddy Waters to Aerosmith. His harmonica playing is iconic, and we’re thrilled to have him <a href="https://massartscenter.org/2023_shows/2023-james-montgomery/" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">back on the MAC stage</a>, this time outdoors.
As you enjoy the performances, take in the beautiful scenery of the lake, making this outdoor festival a perfect way to celebrate the season.
Each band will contribute to the lively atmosphere of this outdoor festival where everyone is welcome to dance and sing along.
If you love that classic “Heartland Rock” sound, you’re going to love <a href="https://paperinfire.com/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Paper In Fire</a>. This six-piece band is a dedicated tribute to John Mellencamp. They nail the grit and soul of hits like “Small Town” and “Jack &amp; Diane.” They were a huge hit last summer and we’re thrilled to have them back.
This outdoor festival is a chance to savor delicious food, refreshing drinks, and great company while enjoying the breathtaking views.
Rounding out the bill is <a href="https://www.facebook.com/CrushedVelvetRocks/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener">Crushed Velvet</a>, a high-energy 70s rock band coming up from Providence. They specialize in the era of big guitars and FM radio classics. They don’t just play the hits; they capture that vintage vibe that makes you want to get up and move and sing-along.
<h3>Food, Drinks, and Reservoir Views</h3>
We’ll have local food trucks on-site, so come hungry. We’re also have our bar booth right outside the tent. Grab a cold drink, find a spot in the shade of the tent, or enjoy sunny views over the lake.
Be sure to invite your friends and family to this outdoor festival, creating memories that you will cherish for years to come.
<h3>What You Need to Know</h3>
The event is happening rain or shine under the big tent. Make sure to bring your own lawn chairs so you have a comfortable spot to kick back and enjoy the show.
