About SAMF

Each year, SAMF produces free concerts over three weekends in June, at the Cathedral Basilica in St. Augustine. Early in the year, they host a series of more intimate concerts at the Waterworks to help fund their major program. SAMF is committed to entertaining and educating through music by providing inspiring performances of local and guest musicians. 

The Waterworks

Built in 1898, the St. Augustine Waterworks is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. The city moved this waterworks facility to a new location after significant population growth. For a time, the building served as a community center and theater, and was later left unused. Now fully renovated again, this facility is accessible, has free parking, and yet retains its historic architectural properties and charm.
