Summer Music at Grace
Thank you to all our wonderful performers who made our 2022 season a success!
David Feurzeig’s “Play Every Town” put Sheldon on the map at #14. Many thanks to David, whose goal it is to bring music and a conversation about climate change to every Vermont town, and to Sheldon resident musicians Jennifer McConnell and Erin Grainger, who lent their lovely voices to the program.
Mark Sustic brought us great live music featuring Corner House, Oliver Scanlon & Pete Sutherland, and YTV Youth Commission as part of the 20th Annual Farewell Reunion. Village Harmony returned in July, and Frevo joined us in August.
Plans are afoot for a 21st Farewell Reunion on Friday, May 26, 2023. Visit our Summer Music at Grace Facebook page for details in the spring.
