Stories from Vermont Folklife’s Archive: A Listening Party

May 28 2024 - May 28 2024 • Time: 5:30 - 7:00PM

Green Mountain Academy for Lifelong Learning (GMALL) is excited to partner with Vermont Folklife and the Manchester Historical Society to present a community listening party. Listening Parties invite you, your friends, and neighbors to come together and listen deeply to the sounds of everyday life in Vermont – voices, music and the world around us – drawn from the archive and research of Vermont Folklife and partnering organizations. This unique event offers an opportunity to explore our community, history, and environment through sound. This evening we will hear about maple sugaring with horses, a fiddle tune at a Franco-American music jam, the strains of a Burmese lullaby, or the many generations of shopkeepers at the H.N. Williams store in Dorset. This is a free event, however, advance registration is appreciated. For more information please call our office at 802-867-0111 or visit greenmtnacademy.org
