Howard County is not only a fantastic arts and culture destination, but also one of the best places in America to educate and raise our next generation.

For all of its fifty years, Candlelight has enriched the lives of countless young people from all parts of the community. In doing so, we have continually fulfilled our mission to provide a stimulating introduction to the arts to students throughout Maryland.

In this first annual free-for-all Candlelight concert, we will showcase the most promising young musical talents from our area—winners of competitions, graduates of county schools, and students of our abundant local music studios.

The FREE tickets for this can’t-miss event will go quickly, so be sure to reserve your seats early!
