Local musicians include Irthlingz (Sharon Abreu and Mike Hurwicz), Cali Bagby, Carl Burger, Marc Cohen, Carolyn Cruso, Bruce Harvie, Susan Osborn, The Olga Symphony, The Parking Angels and children from the Salmonberry School.

In true Pete Seeger form, any and all are welcome and encouraged to sing-along.

The concert is free. Donations are welcome to cover the cost of renting the space. If we raise more, they’ll donate it to two nonprofits: Indian Island Marine Health Observatory, and Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, founded by Pete and Toshi Seeger in 1966.
