2024 Concerts on the Waterfront

The Sackets Harbor Historical Society will continue its 2024 Concerts on the Waterfront series with The Large Flowerheads, performing on Sunday, Aug 18, from 3 to 5 pm, at the Sackets Harbor Battlefield, located at 504 West Main Street.

The Large Flowerheads bring to life the sights and sounds of the groovy 1960s. Their repertoire includes songs by The Beatles, The Rolling Stones, Sonny & Cher, Dusty Springfield, The Mamas & The Papas, The Monkees, and many more. The band is named after a carton of artificial flowers, spotted in a warehouse rehearsal space in Lehigh Valley, PA.

The Historical Society’s Concerts on the Waterfront series run on Sunday afternoons, from June 30 through Sept 1, 2024, and this year’s theme is “Here Comes the Sun”. Like all those in the series, this concert is free and open to the public. It’s held outdoors at the Battlefield, so remember to pack your picnic blanket or lawn chairs.

In case of bad weather, the concerts will be moved to the Parish Center at St. Andrew’s Church, which is located at the corner of East Main and Woolsey Streets. The Historical Society will announce if a concert’s being moved on its Facebook page on the afternoon of the concert.

The Large Flowerheads concert is made possible with funds from the Decentralization Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts, with the support of the Office of the Governor and the New York State Legislature, and administered by the St. Lawrence County Arts Council.

You can also find highlights and entire performances from last year’s Concerts on the Waterfront series on the Historical Society’s YouTube channel.

We hope to see you at some, or ALL, of the concerts this summer!
