FLORENCE
Florence is a village within the city of Northampton, with its own distinct arts identity and two performance venues that draw audiences from across the Pioneer Valley.
Bombyx is an intimate performance space in a former schoolhouse that programs eclectic live music, from world music to jazz to experimental. Pines Theater at Look Park is an outdoor amphitheater that hosts summer concerts in a park setting.
Florence has an artist-community feel distinct from downtown Northampton. Bombyx in particular draws musicians and listeners who value adventurous programming in an acoustically warm room.
Tip: Bombyx is on Main Street in Florence, walkable to cafes and shops. Pines Theater at Look Park is a short drive — bring a picnic for outdoor shows.
