Join us for a Listening Party hosted with East Bethel’s Middle Branch Grange.

Vermont Folklife "Listening Parties" bring people together to share the experience of listening deeply. A bit like a DJ set of the spoken word, we share voices, music, and sounds of the world around us drawn from the Archive at Vermont Folklife.

This unique event offers an opportunity to explore our community, history, and environment through sound.

This special event is a partnership between Vermont Folklife and East Bethel’s Middle Branch Grange. You’ll hear excerpts from recordings made by VT Folklife in the late 80s and early 90s with farmers in Orange and Washington counties. These voices from the past share about the passion, wisdom, and ingenuity of farmers—not to mention some humor, too! Come and listen!

This event is free, and open to the public!
