UPCOMING EVENT!
V is the Valley: A Concert-Conversation with the Folk Songs of Vermont
Tuesday, November 19th
12 Noon - 1:30PM
Bundle @ 51 Main in downtown Middlebury
20th-century songcatcher Helen Hartness Flanders' collection of over 4,000 folk-song field recordings is a treasure trove of Vermont heritage, quietly biding its time in Middlebury College's Special Collections archive. With help from the Vermont Folklife Center and the Vermont Community Foundation, singer-storyteller Jack DesBois is waking up the old ballads and tales for today's Vermonters to share. Jack's richly-textured bass voice breathes new life into the songs, whose stories shed new light on what it means to be part of this delightfully eclectic community that is Vermont.
A Brown Bag Event - Bring a lunch and join the conversation!
$5 suggested donation
