The Somerville Arts Council announces:
PorchFest 2013 registration has begun.
Save the date! Saturday, May 18: 12:00 PM - 6:00 PM
To register for 2013 you must do either of two things:
* If you participated last year, you should log in to your user account and then create a new PorchFest page at this link here.
* If you did not participate last year, you must create a user account here. Then log in and then create a PorchFest page for 2013 here.
In 2011, we created a decentralized music festival--PorchFest. Perhaps you’ve sat on your porch and overheard a neighbor strumming guitar on another porch? Porchfest takes this idea and multiplies it. This is not a festival per se but rather a community event where Somervillians share their love of playing and listening to music. Think of Somerville Open Studios, which is for visual artists, but for music.
On Saturday, May 18th musicians and bands throughout Somerville will celebrate and utilize an underused public venue: The Porch. Acts—ranging from bollywood funk, cosmic americana, killer blues, Moroccan, Balkan, gospel, American space rock and clawhammer banjo—will serenade passersby from porches throughout Somerville.
There are three time slots are based on three quadrants of the city; east to Walnut will be 12-2; Walnut to Willow will be 2-4; west of Willow 4-6. It will all be on this map. (Here's last year's map.)
