Music at the Meeting House

2010 Season

With the coming of the tulips and daffodils this spring, we celebrate beginning our 20th year of Music at the Meeting House at the Chepachet Free Will Baptist Church, housed in the historic Chepachet Meeting House, 1213 Putnam Pike. The church presents these programs as part of their outreach to the community and beyond, realizing it is a wonderful place for families and friends to meet for a pleasant and enjoyable Sunday afternoon.

All the programs begin at 2:30 PM unless otherwise stated. Most programs last one hour, but occasionally they last a half hour longer when needed. No tickets have ever been sold, but a freewill offering, with a suggested donation of $5.00, is taken as a token of appreciation to those who perform.

The church provides a time of fellowship and refreshments following each program.

The Chepachet Free Will Church is looking forward to greeting both old and new attendees this spring. Please park close together as to accommodate more cars. Our historic building now has a ramp on the west side entrance for easier access and additional parking is available in the field west of the church, weather permitting.
