Concerts & Programs

The Friends sponsor a number of "must see" events each year.

Our Winter Concert Series consists of four shows from November to February in the intimate main gallery of the Page-Walker Arts & History Center.

Co-sponsored with the Town of Cary, our Starlight Concerts are held from June through August. These concerts, in the garden plaza behind the Page-Walker, are free and open to the public.

We also present a series of historic preservation speaker programs that you won't want to miss.

Upcoming events

  • Preservation Speaker Series: "What Have We Got to Lose? An Annual Inventory and Report to the Community on the Status of Historic Treasures In and Around Cary"

    • 28 May 2013
    • 7:30 PM
    • Page-Walker Arts & History Center, Main Gallery

    Each May, the Friends examine Cary’s historic properties and report their status to the greater community in this popular program.

    The slideshow tour showcases Cary's history, highlighting properties in Cary’s three National Register historic districts, as well as structures outside of those districts. 

    Narration by members of the Friends’ Historic Preservation Committee describes the historic and architectural significance of the properties and includes interesting tidbits about former owners and their place in Cary’s history. 

    The 90-minute program is followed by refreshments and socializing.
