The Brazosport College and Community Wind Ensemble will present a concert of “Carols in the Museum” at 7:30 p.m. on Dec. 5 at the Lake Jackson Historical Museum. The performance, which is under the direction of Richard Birk, will be offered at no cost to the public, and will be held in the Lake Jackson Historical Museum at 249 Circle Way, Lake Jackson.

“We’re bringing carols to downtown Lake Jackson with a program that will include familiar holiday favorites as well as an audience sing-along,” said Birk.
