Of the 53rd season’s 17 main-stage events, seven are held at Kansas City’s Kauffman Center for the Performing Arts (1601 Broadway Blvd.). The Series has the distinction of holding performances in both of the Center’s halls: four performances in Helzberg Hall and three in Muriel Kauffman Theatre. In addition, the Harriman-Jewell Series presents 10 concerts in the beautifully restored Folly Theater (300 W. 12th St.).

Discovery Concerts and Education Events are free to the public.
