Washington, DC— The Saint Elizabeths Hospital Annual Summer Concert Series is in full swing. Open to the public, the free concerts showcase a variety of music, including jazz, hip hop, rock and roll, Andean, and folk music. The next performance takes place at 7 pm, June 9, 2016, featuring the EccentroSoul sound of Chaquis Malik.  The concerts are held in the outdoor courtyard on the Hospital grounds, 1100 Alabama Avenue SE.
