David Francey Concert

David Francey is a Scottish-born carpenter-turned-songwriter, who has become known as “one of Canada’s most revered folk poets and singers” (Toronto Star). A truly authentic folk singer, Francey is a documentarian of the working person who never imagined earning a living from his music. But when he was in his 40s, his wife, artist Beth Girdler, encouraged him to share his songs and sing in public. The reaction was instant. His first album Torn Screen Door came out in 1999 and was a hit in Canada.

Since then, David has released thirteen albums, won four Juno Awards and has had his songs covered by such artists as The Del McCoury Band, The Rankin Family, James Keelaghan and Tracy Grammer.

The concert is presented by the Cambridge Arts Council with MS Projects LLC and others.

When: Saturday November 23rd, 7:00pm - 9:00pm.

Where: Bryan Memorial Gallery, Jeffersonville, Vermont

Registration is required.

Winter Solstice Sound Bath at the Bryan Gallery

Join instructors Pippa Dorfman [Sacred in the Round] & Tammy Jordan [Healing Within, LLC] for a special 90-minute Sound Bath celebrating the Winter Solstice on Saturday, December 21 from 4:00pm to 5:30pm.

This date marks the 24-hour period with the fewest daylight hours of the year. That is why it is known as the shortest day of the year, or the longest night of the year. You'll celebrate with sound vibration and guided meditation, to ease in this transition from short to gradually lengthening days. This session focuses on balance and mental clarity, aiding in the mind-body-spirit connection and ultimate relaxation as we prepare for more light.

The cost for this special event is $40 per person.

Space is limited and registration is required. You can register HERE

Participants are asked to bring their support materials including a mat and/or blanket, pillow, and bolsters as the gallery does not provide these items.
We ask participants arive 10-15 minutes early to ensure they are ready to begin at 4:00pm, and ask that you enter at the front of the Gallery on Main Street. 

Parking can be found on the street, or in the parking lot behind the gallery. Simply enter via the driveway between the Farm Store and the Bakery for access to the parking lot. For questions, please email us HERE.

We look forward to seeing you at this special event!
