The Outdoor Performance Series is a weekly outdoor performance series that supports the vision of a sustainable, walkable, vibrant top-20 college town. It is a collaboration between the College Park City-University Partnership, the University Office of Community Engagement, College Park Arts Exchange, the Clarice Smith Performing Arts Center, the University of Maryland’s School of Music, and the City of College Park.
This year, the Series hosted a total of 28 events – 16 performances and 1 special event in the Spring with over 400 people attending, 11 in the fall with over 170 people attending. In 2018, over 570 people have attended these events, which occurred on Mondays and Fridays in College Park.
In Fall 2018, the Partnership invited local, independently owned, businesses to participate at these events. Local businesses that participated included: Fishnet, OpenBarre Studios, Proteus Bicycles, JTCC and Numi Yoga (in spirit).
