Since 1985, we have presented acoustic music concerts on the second Friday of each month (excluding summers). We give 100% of our net proceeds to charity (with a focus on small, local social action oriented charities — i.e., homelessness, food pantries, LGBTQ youth initiatives, etc.). Our volunteer staff strives to give our audiences a chance to experience a night of amazing music in an intimate, friendly setting. Tickets for indvidual shows can be purchased on Eventbrite or by following the link on our Calendar page. Season memberships are also available. We look forward to seeing you at a show!
PARKING
There is parking for approximately 2 dozen cars in the First Church parking lot. There is also on-street parking along Concord Avenue and in the Claflin Street Municipal lot behind the shops and restaurants in Belmont Center (a 5-minute walk from the church). The Belmont stop on the MBTA commuter rail is just around the corner and MBTA buses 74 and 75 both stop at the post office across the street from the church.

There is a wonderful variety of restaurants -- Asian, Thai, Italian, Mexican, American and pizza -- in Belmont Center.
DOORS/TICKETS
Concert are scheduled to start at 7:30pm. Doors open at 6:45pm. Enter the church through the double doors at the parking lot level. There is an elevator to your left and stairs to your right as soon as you enter. The concert is in our Parish Hall, on the second floor.
CONCESSIONS
Each month we sell baked goods, coffee, tea and hot chocolate to our concert-goers. 100% of the money from the concessions goes to our charities. Concessions are available in the back of the concert hall from the moment the doors open till the end of the concert, and are also available to take home at the end of the night.
