Folkie Fest: Celebrating the Firsts of Folkie Fest
Donations before Dec 31 qualify for a matching grant to benefit the Moriches Community Center
Center Moriches, NY January 17, 2021: Folkie Fest offers ongoing concert series with local acoustic artists in the spirit of folk music as envisioned by the late Pete Seeger. We provide a listening space and support live, local, singer/songwriters sharing their work.
Keeping our fans and artists safe, we will be doing a virtual concert. For this show, the theme is “firsts.” Each performer will have a 3 song set of acoustic original works. One should be a “first” of some sort – first song written or recorded, or a new work they are performing for the first time.
Find us on the Folkie Fest Facebook page, https://www.facebook.com/folki... or on YouTube https://www.youtube.com/channe...

Donations are gratefully accepted, but not required. All proceeds will be divided among the artists. Any purchase of virtual tickets before December 31st will qualify for a matching grant benefiting the Moriches Community Center. Virtual tickets may be purchased at https://morichescommunitycente... for any amount.
