Annual Memorial Day Potluck Picnic and Arts Celebration on Sunday, May 25th

Pompanuck Farm Hosts its Annual Memorial Day Potluck Picnic and Arts Celebration on Sunday, May 25th.

White Creek, NY. Every Memorial Day since 1994, Pompanuck Farm has hosted a day of community celebration. It is an “open house” event, a tribute to this day of remembrance and to the creativity of the people of our greater community. The public is invited to enjoy this day-long arts festival and tour Pompanuck’s buildings and grounds. Each year an outdoor stage is constructed and tents and tables are set for a community wide potluck sharing.

Over the years the Memorial Day Picnic at Pompanuck has become an annual festival of community building; networking, play, meal sharing and a performance showcase for musicians and artists in varied media whose offerings often reflect the spirit of peace. Some of this year’s performers are: Evita Cobo, Bob Warren, Ferrilyn Sourdiffe, Deena Smith, Bruce Williamson, Athena Burke, Scott Carrino and Friends, a number of Bennington College musicians and ZUELA – a world music ensemble lead by Barry Hyman and consisting of local teenagers who will surely get you dancing!

This event is free and open to the public. Bring a dish and family and friends. This year, Pompanuck will hold its Memorial Day gathering on SUNDAY, MAY 25 –2:00 P.M.until dark. Rain or shine as Pompanuck now has a new event tent!
