About Belleville Roots Music Concert Series Belleville Congregational Church has long standing roots in the Newburyport community as a gathering place and as a supporter of local service organizations. The Roots Music Series, founded December 2010, has three important missions. First, the series will bring a variety of high quality Roots Music to the Newburyport area for all to enjoy: a cappella to zydeco and could include many things in between such as blues, bluegrass, Cajun, Celtic, country folk, gospel, Irish, jazz and world music. The second mission of the Roots Music Concert Series is to raise funds to restore and maintain the historic 1867 Belleville Meetinghouse and adjacent Fiske Chapel complex at 300 High Street in Newburyport. The third mission, an important goal, is the building of community through music. It is hoped that the Meetinghouse and the adjacent complex will continue to serve as a gathering places for years to come.
