As part of the Griffin Terrace Series, Arts Winchester presents a summer beer garden with live music performed by Glenn Dickson and the Shirim Klezmer Orchestra.

Shirim has played concerts and festivals across the United States, Canada and Europe since 1982. Nationally recognized for their traditional playing, they are also known for their pioneering crossover projects: Klezmer Nutcracker, Maurice Sendak's Pincus, and The Golden Dreydl (with Ellen Kushner).  They have performed with the Philadelphia Pops Orchestra, at the Montreal Jazz Festival and at Lincoln Center!
