Thomas Centennial Park Bandstand restoration​

The bandstand at Thomas Centennial Park is currently undergoing a full restoration that will preserve the historical and cultural resource well into the future. One of the few remaining original bandstands in Indiana, the historic structure has been the unofficial symbol of Chesterton since constructed in 1924. The bandstand has long served as the focal point of downtown and the center of various activities and celebrations.
