Noon - 1pm - The Tuesday Night Recorder Consort

1 - 2 pm: Members of Fiddleheads Started in the early winter of 2003, Fiddleheads is a group of young people (as young as 5, as old as 19) interested in learning and performing traditional fiddle tunes associated in some way with northern Vermont.
Fiddlers participate by learning a variety of fiddle tunes, played mostly in a group format. The tunes highlight the Yankee, French, Irish, Scottish and other cultural heritages, mostly associated with northern Vermont, New England and New York, as well as influences from outside the state. Participants learn to value the contributions of these cultures, to use traditional music to celebrate the contributions of different cultural groups, and when possible, to learn directly from representatives of those cultures.
2:00 - 3:00 pm - Green Mountain Cloggers Since the 1970's the Green Mountain Cloggers have been performing around the state of Vermont. Our show combines traditional Appalachian clogging with other dance styles, including Irish hard-shoe and celli dancing, French-Canadian clogging, and American tap dancing.
Currently the group consists of approximately ten dancers from the Chittenden County area.
