Judy, what sort of music do you perform? Are you also interested in coffee house work (paid) Might want to check out Live Art here in Vermont. They put out a publication (somewhat bimonthly) on the folk scene up here. They also do a coffee house series, and book artists with another venue about an hour away. The festivals in this area are: The Champlain Valley Festival in Burlington in early August, and the New World Festival (french Canadian and celtic) in Randolph VT. over Labor Day weekend, sponsored by the Chandlar Cultural Foundation.

Good luck.

Susan

It's going to be a long hard winter but we all have NEFFA to look forward to, the New England Folk Festival, which is in mid-April every year in Natick MA, not too far from you. I hope you can find something before then but put NEFFA on your calendar especially since somebody in your circle of friends will be going or performing there! I'll post tomorrow from work & let you know the exact dates. (whatever you want, it's in the other place) sorry

Howdy again, I am just beginning to spread my proffesional wings as a folk singer and I'm looking for festivals with in the regional limits of Boston, down to Wash. DC and from the Sea to around Harrisburg, PA. If folks could let me know about the festivals they've been to and if they have web sites it would be a big help. Thanx.
