Another "Zoom" Show September 10, 2020 - 6:30 pm

 The Homegrown String Band will be performing via Zoom and YouTube Live on September 10th at 6:30 PM. They are “a postmodern neo-traditional old-time string band” playing “high energy acoustic American roots music.”

This program was funded in part by a Delaware Valley Arts Alliance “Arts For Sullivan” grant entitled “An Outdoor Music Series in Monticello.” This project is made possible, in part, with funds from the Decentralization Program, a regrant program of the New York State Council on the Arts with the support of Governor Andrew Cuomo and the New York State Legislature and is administered by the Delaware Valley Arts Alliance. This series of musical programs is also possible, in part, through funding provided by the Friends of the Ethelbert B. Crawford Public Library, Inc.

Register for this exciting and fun-filled evening with the Homegrown String Band here.
