CERES is well-known for its highly praised New American cuisine and refined atmosphere. Summer brings people from all parts of Massachusetts and beyond to gather on the patio for its renowned Music Series featuring a special jazz menu for a one-of-a-kind outdoor music and dining experience in Central Mass.
Dale LePage & The Manhattans will be performing Thursday, June 15 as well as several other dates throughout the Music Series. LePage is a multi-award winning entertainer and six-time winner of Entertainer of the Year Massachusetts in Worcester Living Magazine.
Jazz vocalist Linda Dagnello’s performance at CERES is Thursday, June 29. Dagnello has played in concert halls, jazz festivals, and clubs throughout New England.
