Eighth Annual Pete Seeger Festival at TCCC

May 5 @ 2:00 pm - 5:00 pm

Free

Celebrate the musical, environmental and humanitarian legacy of our neighbor, mentor, and friend.

Scheduled performers include David and Jacob Bernz, Betty and the Baby Boomers, Rick Nestler, Linda Richards, Laurie Siegel and Patrick Stanfield Jones, Joe Kaminsky, RJ Storm and the Old School Bluegrass Band, the Trouble Sisters, and Sarah Underhill.

The musicians were all Pete’s friends, who performed with him, sailed with him on the sloops Clearwater and Woody Guthrie, and worked with him at the Beacon Sloop Club. In addition to singing Pete’s songs and their own, they will reminisce about the man who inspired so many people in the course of his 94 years.

Fine crafts will be offered for sale, and refreshments will be available. Vendors will include craft artisans Denise Leaden, Nancy Holmes Doyle, Ivy Kelly, Marlene Ratliff, and Ellen and Dale Saltzman.

This is a FREE, family-friendly event held outdoors. Donations will be shared with local organizations that Pete created, including the Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, the Beacon Sloop Club and the River Pool at Beacon.
