The popular blues group, “Bubba and the Big Bad Blues,” will be the headliner Wednesday, July 21, as part of the Fullerton Parks and Recreation Department’s popular outdoor summer concert series.

 

All concerts in the series will be held from 6:30-8:30 p.m. 

 

While food will be available for purchase at the complex, concert-goers are welcome to bring a picnic supper to enjoy, as well as lawn chairs or blankets for seating. 

           

In addition to the music, the concerts will offer free arts and crafts for children.
