Since June 2012, music has filled the Dolphin Bookshop and Café every Friday night at 7:00 with performances that are free and open to the community. The series features a wide range of musical styles, including jazz, classical, rock, folk, pop and musical theater. Many of the performers are Port Washington residents, making the series a valuable way for local musicians to share their talents with the community. Plus, the series gives Port residents a place to unwind on a Friday night with live music, and delicious desserts and paninis from the café. Over the past fifteen months, the series has featured over 100 musicians in 64 performances. For more information, or performance inquiries, please email: music@thedolphinbookshop.com
