Summer on the Hudson has a soundtrack, and in Ossining it is RiverJam. The town's free Friday-night concert series is back at Louis Engel Waterfront Park all summer, and this year it is presented by Up the River, Ossining's own cannabis boutique.

What RiverJam is

RiverJam is a free, family-friendly summer concert series and Food Truck Friday on the Ossining waterfront. Each Friday brings food trucks and craft beer starting at 5 PM, a local business spotlight from 5 to 6:30 PM, and live music at 7 PM, all with the Hudson River as the backdrop.
