Sweet Honey in the Rock Headlines Art & Activism Festival 08/26/17

Sweet Honey in the Rock, Climbing Poetree, The Love Experiment, and Sophia Dawson are coming to Easthampton, MA for a free "Art & Activism" themed festival this Saturday, August 26th!

The Rosenberg Fund for Children is proud to be the presenting sponsor for this edition of the Millpond.Live festival in Millside Park (2 Ferry St., Easthampton). We hope you'll join us for this multimedia journey incorporating music, spoken word, video and visual art in a conversation about pressing social issues including racism, police brutality, U.S. political prisoners, and other topics. The intergenerational lineup features artists who have dedicated their careers to creating change and speaking out against injustice.

Millpond.Live gates open at 5:00 pm on August 26th, and music begins at 6:00 pm. Attendees should bring blankets & chairs, and are welcome to carry in their own refreshments or purchase on site from food trucks and local microbreweries. This free, all-ages event will be the second installment of Millpond.Live's 2017 season, an eclectic, art and music festival spanning six Saturdays (August 19th - September 23rd), with different themes each week.

Visit Millpond.Live for more details on the August 26th Art & Activism event and the rest of the 2017 season.
