Music in the gardens
The musical talent concentrated in the little area called the Bearcamp Valley is enormously impressive and soon to be displayed for public appreciation. On Saturday, August 23, from 5-8pm, The Community School will host a local musician showcase on its garden stage in South Tamworth.
Folk and bluegrass gem, Peter Heimlich, will act as master of ceremonies for the evening’s revue. The eclectic line up includes the smoky notes of jazz, familiar rock tunes, a smattering of folk and Celtic favorites, and the spunky sounds of Tamworth’s own alternative band, MarketPlace Hysteria. You can expect to hear some fiddling, a zither, and perhaps some African drumming. There will be room for dancing!
Folks are encouraged to bring a lawn chair or picnic blanket, and to pack a dinner or purchase food from The Community School gardens and kitchens. For $5, enjoy a plate with three different salads OR a piece of Sunnyfield Bakery bread with sliced cold turkey and one salad. Bottled water and ice cream cones are available for $1 each.
Sound will be generously provided by Dennis Quinn and the Arts Council of Tamworth (ACT), so every note will ring clear in the evening air.
Admission costs are $10 for adults and $3 for children under 18. Bring the family, your neighbors, and friends for one of the biggest frolics of the summer! For more information or directions, contact The Community School at 323-7000 or at director@communityschoolnh.org.
