JUNE...

Saturday, June 12, 7:00 pm at the Lincoln Homestead in Ware

“East Quabbin Concert for the Land” – Sarah Stockwell-Arthen with Susan Lincoln opening on the harp. Sarah Stockwell-Arthen sings songs with a deep connection to the Earth, the heart and the spirit. This evening will celebrate the land, local food, the rural way of life and the resilience of strong community.


“These exquisitely chosen ballads create a spiritual journey through the human soul, with affecting images of darkness and light, strength and weakness, evil and plenty of humor.” – The Boston Phoenix

“Powerful, often stunning …her voice is a gift.” – Boston Rock Magazine.

Join us for this summer evening concert at the Lincoln Homestead, 13 Old Stage Coach Road in Ware. Cost: $5-10 sliding scale (or what you can, and children in a quiet mood are welcome.) For more info: www.sarahstockwell.com, [email protected] or call 413-967-6932, (Lincoln home)
