FREE & Open to the Public | Doors open at 6:30 PM

The Troy-Hayner Cultural Center is thrilled to kick off the 2025–2026 Drawing Room Chamber Concert series with Oakwood Brass, led by trumpeter Eric Knorr, the Hayner’s newly appointed Music Coordinator. This extraordinary ensemble features top brass performers from across Ohio, who regularly perform with the Cincinnati Symphony Orchestra, Cincinnati Pops, Dayton Philharmonic, Columbus Symphony, and more. Many members are also prominent educators at the University of Dayton, University of Cincinnati College-Conservatory of Music, Wright State University, Capital University, and Cedarville University.

This special concert program honors America’s rich musical heritage, featuring:

• George Gershwin – Strike Up the Band

• A medley of George M. Cohan classics, including Give My Regards to Broadway and You’re a Grand Old Flag

• John Philip Sousa – Semper Fidelis

• American folk favorite Shenandoah

• Ragtime & jazz gems – Scott Joplin’s Maple Leaf Rag and Duke Ellington’s It Don’t Mean a Thing (If It Ain’t Got That Swing)

• Audience participation with Bohemian Rhapsody and patriotic favorites

• Grand finale with America the Beautiful and Sousa’s Stars and Stripes Forever

As a USAF bandsman, Eric Knorr will share stories from his deployment and bring a personal touch to this patriotic celebration. Seating is limited, so plan to arrive early for the best view of this unforgettable performance!

Boo Bash 2025

Saturday, October 25 | 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM
FREE Family Event

Saddle up for a rootin’ tootin’ good time at Boo Bash 2025!
The Troy-Hayner Cultural Center invites families to join us on Saturday, October 25 from 11:00 AM – 2:00 PM for a free, family-friendly Halloween celebration with a western twist.

Kids can enjoy:

• Themed games designed just for fun-loving cowboys and cowgirls

• Hands-on crafts to spark creativity

• Festive photo ops throughout the mansion

• All activities indoors which means it’s comfy, no matter the weather!

Come dressed in your favorite costume whether it’s cowboy boots, princess gowns, superheroes, or anything that makes you smile. Thanks to the generous support of Friends of Hayner and Scott Family McDonald’s, families can look forward to extra-special surprises for the kids.

Boo Bash is a cherished Hayner tradition that perfectly pairs with Troy Main Street’s Hometown Halloween. Families can kick off the morning downtown (9:00 AM – Noon) with a costume contest, trick-or-treating, and community fun, then mosey over to the Hayner for an afternoon of more Halloween adventures.

This year’s Boo Bash promises to be a full day of fall fun you won’t want to miss!

The Troy-Hayner Cultural Center is proudly supported by the citizens of the Troy City School District through a local tax levy and by generous gifts to the Friends of Hayner.
