Vermonters, Let’s Come Together:
Join Me, Grace Potter, and Young Artists for Music and Discussion


Town Meetings on Saturday, August 5, at 12 P.M. in White River Junction and at 4 P.M. in South Burlington


Dear Fellow Vermonter,

It is no secret that many Vermont families are going through a very difficult time as a result of the floods. As I have traveled across our state to hear directly from Vermonters as to how this disaster has impacted them, it is inspiring to see their solidarity and sense of community.

Now, more than ever, it is important to bring people together. And to my mind, there is no better way to do that than through the arts. That is why I hope you will join me, Grace Potter, and young Vermont artists for music and conversations on Saturday, August 5 at Lyman Point Park in White River Junction at 12 P.M. and at Veterans’ Memorial Park in South Burlington at 4:00 P.M.

I was glad that Grace Potter sat down with us for a recent Bernie Buzz and know that Vermonters of all ages will appreciate her story.

As we all know, the arts play an important role in our communities, our schools, and our everyday lives. And it is important for young people to have opportunities to make music and perform. We are lucky that Vermont has produced some incredibly talented musicians and I am grateful that some of them – both well-known names like Grace Potter and up-and-coming artists – will be joining us to share their stories and play us some of their music. So, as we stand together through this difficult time, let’s make time for community, for art, and for each other. We hope you will join us for this family-friendly event.
