Check out the newest StoryWalk in Michiana! The Raclin Murphy Museum of Art has partnered with the St. Joseph County Public Library to bring this exciting national project to the Charles B. Hayes Family Sculpture Park from July 1 through September 2. StoryWalk® combines experiencing nature with reading together as a family. Our StoryWalk will explore the book What’s New Daniel? by Micha Archer. Read together, do fun activities, and enjoy the art and nature of the Sculpture Park! The story begins off the Hiler Family Terrace behind the museum near Clement Meadmore’s sculpture UPBEAT (look for a black sculpture that looks like it’s dancing at the start of a path into the Sculpture Park) and continues east on a paved, gently sloping path. Parking is available in the Visitor Lot immediately north of the Sculpture Park for a fee during the week (before 4:30 p.m.). Free two-hour parking is available in the Eddy Street Commons Parking Garage or along Angela Blvd. After 4:30 p.m. and on weekends, parking is free and available in any non-gated lot.

This summer, the Raclin Murphy Museum is celebrating a decade of creativity and rhythm with Merrimans’ Playhouse—and you’re invited! Enjoy amazing live performances, special experiences, and fantastic food and drinks all season long. Bring a blanket or lawn chair (limited seating will be available on the Terrace), relax under the sun, and let the music move you in this one-of-a-kind setting. Ivan’s Cafe will have tasty food and non-alcoholic beverages available for purchase. Oh Mamma’s will be selling scrumptious small plates perfect for snacking, and Perry Vine will be pouring delicious meads and wines for purchase by the glass or bottle. For our last concert of the summer, we are welcoming the Javier Red Quartet to the Terrace. In his new quartet, Javier Red is composing for and making music with Dakarai Barclay (trumpet), Jake Wark (tenor sax), Jeff Wheaton (bass), and Daniel Gayden (drums). The quartet serves as a vehicle for musical exploration along three lines: the rhythmic pulse and repetition rooted in West African music traditions, the creative personalities of the band members, and the continual reinvention or reinterpretation of both Javier's original compositions and music from great jazz composers such as Monk, Henderson, Coltrane, and Shorter that have a special connection with Javier's rhythmic explorations. Museum galleries will be open so you can explore the work of art paired with the performance. Series curated by Stephen and Mary Merriman of Merrimans’ Playhouse. Parking is available in the Visitor Lot immediately north of the Sculpture Park for a fee during the week (before 4:30 p.m.). Free two-hour parking is available in the Eddy Street Commons Parking Garage or along Angela Blvd. After 4:30 p.m. and on weekends, parking is free and available in any non-gated lot.
