Summer Barn Dance

June 18th at 24 Pleasant Street, Saxtons River, Vt. The festivities begin at 6:00 P.M.
What better way to kick off summer than with a fun, old-fashioned New England barn dance? Hosted by Mary Hepburn and Ryan Ostebo, the MSA benefit event will feature the Main Street Arts String Band providing the music for square and contra dances called by Andy Toepfer. It’s potluck, so bring a dish or drink to share. Admission by donation. Join the fun See you then!

Saxtons River, Live!

Calling all interested participants! No experience necessary! Main Street Arts is reprising its popular radio show cabaret from the summer of 2005. With the help of Stuart Joseph, the cast will recreate the scripts of years ago. Comedy, mystery...the possibilities are endless. The show will also feature musical numbers directed by Eric Robinson.

Performances are August 27 and 28 at 7:30 P.M. All seats are $10, and tickets will be available in mid-August. Rehearsals begin July 5. So, if you can sing or act or have always wanted to try, we want you! E-mail msa@sover.net or call (802) 869- 2960 by the end of June to let us know you’d like to be part of the production.

Recycle—Renew—Reuse …
GREEN ART !

Annual Art Show and Silent Auction Each year, MSA has put together an annual art show that features work by local artists that is auctioned off as a benefit for MSA. Past themes have included sap buckets, mirrors, clocks and planters! This year’s art will have the theme of renew, reuse, or recycle, and we are looking for artists to donate work. Perhaps you have a broken work that could be renewed. Maybe you have an item that could be reused in a different format. Or perhaps you might create something entirely new from recycled objects.

Work is due the week of August 9 and will be on display on MSA’s Web site after August 1. The finale of the art show and silent auction take place at a reception held in conjunction with the Saxtons River, Live! performance August 28.

To donate work, contact MSA at (802) 869-2960 or
