Glen Echo Park (Glen Echo,MD)
A fantastic bit of American history & Americana.
From the park's website: Glen Echo Park began in 1891 as a National Chautauqua Assembly, which taught the sciences, arts, languages and literature. By the early 1900s Glen Echo Park had become a premier amusement park, serving the Washington area until 1968. In 1971, after the federal government obtained the land, the National Park Service began managing the park. The National Park Service collaborated with artists and arts organizations to create a rich arts program in the spirit of the original Chautauqua movement.
Today the programs and facilities at the Park are managed by a nonprofit organization, the Glen Echo Park Partnership for Arts and Culture, Inc., while the National Park Service continues its role in managing the grounds and providing historic interpretation. The mission of the Glen Echo Park Partnership is to present vibrant artistic, cultural and educational offerings at Glen Echo Park and to promote the Park as a unique destination for our region’s diverse population. It nurtures a dynamic community of artists and performers while preserving and managing historic facilities within this unique National Park. Truly a community and grassroots event.
This great festival takes place on Market Square in Alexandria-- Market Square is one of the oldest marketplaces in America, and we're really pleased to be part of this lovely event. Lots of fine crafts, great music, and of course Old Town Alexandria... a great place to hang out for the day!
Swannanoa Gathering Contemporary Folk Week/ Guitar Week. Siobhan's Flexible Voice Vocal Workshop & It's All About The Song, an interpretive performance class... sign up early!
Steve & Myra have opened up their Historic Cooper’s House to present a co-bill of Siobhan Quinn & Michael Bowers and Friction Farm. This is truly a family affaire--Friction Farm is Aidan Quinn & Christine Stay, and we're really looking forward to sharing music with each other.
The Historic Cooper’s House of Oakland Mills is located just off US Route 29 between Columbia and Ellicott City, Maryland. The central stone structure was built in 1790 and is listed on the Howard County Registry of Historical Houses. The house was originally the home of the “cooper” who lived there and built barrels for the Oakland Flour Mills. Concert will be held in the “Great Room” and provide an intimate setting to hear great acoustic music.
The neat thing is that Siobhan & Aidan's grandfather was a craftsman, indeed a Master Cooper for Guinness in Dublin.
September 20-27 (MB)
