Two Sunday concerts offer old-fashioned family outings that could easily turn into picnics-in-the-park. Ambitious families might catch a bit of both free events.

The concert at Peter Strauss Ranch begins at 2 p.m. in the park amphitheater with Deirdre Mary Gibbons singing Irish songs. She is followed by the Avaz, a folk music and dance ensemble with a dozen dancers, singers and musicians.

The ranch is at 30000 Mulholland Highway and can be reached by taking U.S. 101 to the Kanan Road exit south. Turn left on Troutdale Road, left again at Mulholland to the parking lot. Information: (818) 888-3770.
