The Siloam Springs Museum proudly presents the amazing musical duo "Still on the Hill" in two separate concerts.

The first concert will be held at 7 p.m. Friday, Aug. 7, at Inn at the Springs. The second will be held at 11 a.m. Aug. 8 in City Park for Kids Day at the Farmers Market.

Kelly Mulhollan and Donna Stjerna, who make up Still on the Hill, have received numerous awards including the Governor's 'Folk Life' Award in 2010, the Ozark Music Awards and the Northwest Arkansas Music Awards for Best Guitar, Best Violin, Best Songwriter and as Hall of Fame winners for Best Folk Band.

Friday night's free performance will be a folk-grass concert. Participants will be entertained by Still on the Hill's enthusiasm and love of their art as the crowd learns about Ozark history and stories through song. The concert will be held at the Inn at the Springs at 201 W. University St.

Saturday morning's free concert will be filled with music by Toucan Jam -- a performance by Still on the Hill that gives musical world tour for kids. Families can enjoy this vibrant, kid-friendly musical performance with puppets and exotic instruments at the Siloam Springs City Park, during the Kids Day at the Farmers Market at the corner of Mt. Olive St. and University St.
