The courtyard of the Central Library in Copley Square is one of Boston's most beautiful havens from the hustle and bustle of the city.
We are grateful to the Bank of America Charitable Foundation, the presenting sponsor of Concerts in the Courtyard for the third year in a row. We deeply appreciate the Bank’s commitment to the arts and to these concerts, which are free and open to all.
