Please come to a special occasion concert celebrating Robin Russell’s 15 years on Whitney Hill, a beautiful and magical landscape. Pete and Jeremiah have often been featured artists here at New Acadia Farm, and I personally consider them part of the landscape. They’ve performed here since 1998 for contradances, house concerts, teaching workshops, weddings and camp weekends. Christopher Schoelen and Caitlin Jacobs will be opening for them as the first debut performance of this young folk duo. An open jam will follow the featured concert. So please do bring along your instruments. I hope to see you!
