Family Music Festival in Port Townsend

July 23rd, 2008 by michael c. moore

From the "This Got Here Too Late to Make It Into the Paper" pile:

The Andy Mackie Music Foundation will be having its annual Family Music
Festival on Saturday, Aug. 30 from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. and on
Sunday, Aug. 31 from noon to 6 p.m. at the Memorial Field in Port Townsend.
The events will consist of Scottish Highland Games for kids on Saturday.
These games will start at 10 a.m. and go until about 2 p.m. A silent
auction and an instrument building workshop will be both days. Participating in this
workshop will allow you to build your own instrument and take it home. There will be food and vendors on the grounds.

The music this event will feature will include bluegrass, fiddle tunes,
Celtic, folk music, rock and roll, blues, jazz, Hawaiian dance and Scottish
music. A dance will be on Saturday night at 8 p.m. and run until
10 p.m.

If you would like to donate an item for the silent auction, volunteer to
help with the event, volunteer a service, or are interested in a vendor
space, please contact Andy Mackie at (360) 316-9556.

Admission is by donation only. All proceeds will be divided between the
Andy Mackie Music Foundation and Habitat for Humanity.
