2 Best Performing Arts in The Litchfield Hills, Connecticut

Built in 1883, this modernized 300-seat music hall with a world-class sound system hosts more than 200 shows a year by local performers as well as nationally known folk, soft rock, and jazz groups. The intimate setting puts you close to the stage. Before the performance, have drinks, snacks, or a meal at the on-site GoodWorks Smokehouse.

Held at the Music Shed on the 70-acre Ellen Battell Stoeckel Estate, Norfolk Chamber Music Festival—under the auspices of the Yale Summer School of Music—presents world-renowned artists and ensembles on summer evenings in July and August. Stroll the 70-acre grounds or visit the art gallery, too.
