About the event
Join us for a “Songwriters in the Round” evening at the museum on Thursday, October 17, 7:00 p.m. This event is in partnership with the Crooked Road and will feature three songwriter-musician acts from the Bristol area and the surrounding region: Linda and David Lay, Sandy Shortridge, and Rafe Van Hoy. Each artist/act will perform 3-4 songs in a “round robin,” while also sharing stories about the songwriting craft, their inspirations, and career. Audience members will enjoy great music and gain an insight into the craft of songwriting.
Attendees are invited to visit the museum's special exhibit Songwriter Musician before the program. Rafe Van Hoy is featured in the exhibit, and his guitar and items of memorabilia are on display.
