Blues, jazz, rock n’ roll, pop and bluegrass are just a few of the music genres visitors and residents of downtown Manteo can enjoy during The Courtyard Sessions: Live At Lunch at Dare Arts starting on Wednesday, May 10.

The Courtyard Sessions: Live At Lunch is a weekly event that will be held on Wednesdays from 11:30 a.m. to 1:30 p.m. and is free and open to everyone.

“With delicious eateries and unique shops, midday is a bustling time in historic downtown Manteo,” said Dare Arts executive director Jessica Sands. “Who doesn’t love hearing some live music while they shop and enjoy lunch? Our Courtyard is a great spot to take a break from shopping to enjoy a sweet treat or a coffee outside, and so we figured why not add some live music in there too! We are so excited to host The Courtyard Sessions: Live At Lunch, which features a great mix of our local musicians.”
