People of all ages are welcome to attend a wonderful celebration of music and community at Serenity Performing Arts Centre (just 15 minutes east of Clearwater on Lost Creek Road between Birch Island and Vavenby) on Sept. 5 – 7.
Venue owner Shirley de Vooght plans a weekend when the residents of the North Thompson can experience the music of professional recording artists showcased at her acreage’s outdoor stage with full lights and sound.
The festival line-up will include a fantastic variety of music genres (rock, country, pop, Celtic, folk, blues) featuring the following artists from B.C. and Alberta: Cod Gone Wild, JJ Shiplett and the Red River Rebellion, Devon Coyote, North Country Gentlemen, Greg Drummond, Brodie Dawson, Windborn, and Cruel Young Heart.
The music will kicks off with full shows on Friday from 6 p.m. - 11 p.m., Saturday from 2 p.m. - 11 p.m., and multi-band jams on Sunday, 11 a.m. - 2 p.m.
Included in the festival pass is access to the children’s art garden, featuring a variety of hands-on activities for children of all ages on Saturday from 10 a.m. - 4 p.m., and free play-based stations set up all weekend long. If the weather is hot and sunny (fingers crossed), sprinklers will be set up in a designated lawn space for children and families to enjoy.
The hope is for people of all ages to come together, enjoy one another’s company overlooking the North Thompson River, and dance into the night. Bonfire pits will glow each night.
There is no better way to say goodbye to summer and hello to fall than to bring your family and friends to Serenity Harvest Music Festival.
