Linde Center for Music and Learning

During the fall, winter, and spring, the only events taking place on campus are at the Linde Center. The grounds will not be open during concert times to walk there from other lots.

Around the Rest of Campus

From June through August, we offer free parking in the general parking lots accessible via West Street (Route 183) and the passholder-reserved lots for donors accessible from Tanglewood Drive. During the summer, our parking attendants are on duty two hours prior to the performance gate times.
