The 21st annual holiday concert at St. John’s Church/Meeting House, featuring the Downeast Brass Quintet, is Sunday, Dec. 8 at 3 p.m.

This concert, for many the start of the holiday season, is one of Dresden’s longest running traditions and has entertained many families and friends in the area.

Concert master Dwight Tibbetts has once again written and arranged many new songs for the concert. Members of the Quintet always praise the venue as the best they play in. If you haven’t had a chance to hear this famous group play in a lovely setting, this is your chance.

Following the concert is a potluck reception at Tim and Delia Cunningham’s home at Bridge Farm in Dresden Mills. RSVP to Peter Walsh, 737-2807, or mpwwalsh1@roadrunner.com
