Picturing America



The next Homegrown String Band show will be on November 8th at the Northport Public Library. Our performance will be part of the National Endowment for the Humanities "Picturing America" celebration

Picturing America
September through December 2009

"The Northport-East Northport Public Library is the proud recipient of a Picturing America grant awarded by the National Endowment for the Humanities in cooperation with the American Library Association. The Picturing America initiative consists of forty poster-sized reproductions of American masterpieces and has been awarded to public libraries and schools across the country. In the Museum Cove, the display case will feature arts and crafts made by staff members. Creative pieces by Northport Library artisans serve as a lively complement to the images of famous paintings, photographs, sculpture, and architecture mounted on the walls of the room."

Our performance will be on Sunday November 8th at 2pm. Looks like it will be a fun day. Hope to see some familiar faces in the audience.

  1. I was at the Northport Library a few years back for a Gary Ackerman event. It's a beautiful library. November 8 is a not-for-profit run to benefit the families of wounded war veterans. I'm not sure when it's over, maybe I can catch some of the show.
