License to Write
Age: 7-13 years old
July 6th-10th
Led by Fiona Sullivan
Explore the art of narration with words, images and oral story telling. Maybe you love to write but get hung up on grammar. Inspired by Peter Elbow’s writing method, we will practice daily ‘free writes,’ and try out our hand in the realm of fiction and nonfiction. We’ll consider writing as mark making and explore the boundary between drawing and writing. We’ll ask the question, how do we incorporate writing into visual art? Come with the desire and openness to both write and draw.

We couldn’t be more excited to welcome Myra Flynn to the Green. Get ready for something special Campers.
Singer/songwriter Myra Flynn spends her career embracing dichotomy. Half Irish and half African American, her original indie/soul songs blend soulful vocals with a lyrical delivery that doesn't let one get too comfortable. As the New England Deli Magazine puts it, "Her vocal influences have as much in common with Ani Difranco and Shawn Colvin as they do with Rihanna and Jill Scott."
Flynn spent her Vermont childhood clad in leopard print and platform shoes, singing and dancing atop anything that looked remotely like a stage. These days, not much has changed. She has since shared stages with: Ivan Neville (Dumpstaphunk), Mike Gordon (Phish) , Gabrielle Gordon (Natalie Merchant), Sonya Kitchell, Rayvon, Res, Alexa Ray Joel, Slick Rick, Anais Mitchell and Lee “Scratch” Perry.

We are always excited to have the intrepid duo, Soule Monde, join us on the Green! This is a show you won’t want to miss.
Soule Monde is avant funk born of the syncopated minds of power drummer Russ Lawton and organ wizard Ray Paczkowski. The “duo” is cemented into an indestructible unit, where bold improvisational leaps are interpreted telepathically and reciprocated effortlessly. Paczkowski has an intrepid ability to simultaneously tame the Hammond B3 and clavinet, filling Soule Monde’s sound with beautiful and dynamic melodies. Lawton is the consummate ‘pocket’ drummer, driving the groove further without ever losing a step, or Ray. This is the jazz-duo your parents warned you about.

Formed in Northern Vermont in the summer of ’24, The Sara Whitehair Band (SWB) has quickly become known for their funky classics, deep-pocket grooves, and a fresh breath of soul in every set.
Frontwoman Sara Whitehair, who hand-picked the SWB lineup, leads with powerful vocals and her soulful sax style. Backed by Chris Lynch (guitar), Dan Swain (bass), Chris Zebal (keys), newest member Cal McCandless on drums, and Zaq Meyer on trumpet, SWB delivers a tight, groove-heavy sound with rich horn textures and an irresistible rhythm section that will keep you moving.
