Hike + Concert: Kimaya Diggs at Nathan Lester House and Farm Tool Museum

Who doesn't love music, the outdoors and some history? Sustain Music & Nature and the Ledyard Historical Society are partnering up to put on a Trail Session hike and concert on June 27. This Trail Session will highlight the beautiful grounds and historical sights at the Nathan Lester House and Farm Tool Museum, managed between the Ledyard Historical Society and the Ledyard Historic District Commission. Folk/Soul/R&B artist Kimaya Diggs will perform following the guided hike. Diggs was nominated in the "Best New Artist" and "Album of the Year" categories at the 2023 New England Music Awards and was recently honored as one of 10 artists of color making a difference in the Boston area by WBUR. She has opened for the likes of Trombone Shorty, Lizzie No, Tank and The Bangas, and has toured with Heather Maloney. The Boston Globe calls her “Expressive, smooth vocals…she’s kind of an unstoppable force.”

Hike/Tour at 10am, concert at 11am. $10 suggested adult sliding scale tickets, but you can reserve tickets for free too. Kids are welcome. Trail Sessions introduce people to their parks and great music.
