SUMMARY:Lafayette's Visit to Kennebunk: Bicentennial Event
DESCRIPTION:What it is:\nThe American Friends of Lafayette present an elaborate national tour commemorating the 200th anniversary of the Farewell Tour of the Marquis de Lafayette\, one of the last surviving generals of the American Revolution. In response to France’s alliance with the American colonies to fight the British\, Lafayette arrived in America in 1777 to serve alongside the colonists. In 1824\, President James Monroe invited Lafayette to return to the United States as the nation’s guest\, where he visited all 24 states in the union. He is sometimes known as “The Hero of the Two Worlds” for his accomplishments in the service of both France and the United States.\n\n++\n\nBeginning in August 2024\, a thirteen-month bicentennial celebration of Lafayette’s triumphant return tour of the United States kicked off in New York City. During the next thirteen months\, the tour will follow Lafayette’s footsteps through the then-existing 24 states in the exact order he traveled in 1824 and 1825. To learn more about the entire route\, visit the American Friends of Lafayette.\n\n++\n\nFollowing the schedule of June 24\, 1825\, The Marquis de Lafayette (living history actor) will be visiting Kennebunk at 3:00pm on June 24\, 2025!\n\nThe schedule is below:\n\nTuesday\, June 24\, 2025:\n\nTHIS EVENT WILL TAKE PLACE INDOORS due to the excessive heat.\n\n3:00pm: Join the Brick Store Museum at 117 Main Street to enjoy lemonade and cookies\, and a pop-up exhibit as we await Lafayette’s arrival\n\n3:30pm: The Marquis de Lafayette will make an historic speech to the crowd and meet & greet visitors.\n\n4:30pm: Assemble in the second story windows of the Brick Store Museum for a photo with Lafayette! In 1825\, workers constructing the Brick Store waived out these same windows as Lafayette rode past on his way to Biddeford.\n\nThis is a free event open to the entire community. Come welcome Lafayette with us!

SUMMARY:Liz & Dan Faiella | Concerts in West K with Mousam River Music
DESCRIPTION:The Museum’s Concert Partner Mousam River Music Presents: \nLiz and Dan Faiella bring to life the traditional music of their roots\, with crisp vocals\, mesmerizing fingerstyle guitar\, lyrical fiddling\, and exhilarating rhythmic drive. Their music calls to mind the convivial grange hall contradances of their youth in New Hampshire\, while conveying a wistfulness for their ancestral Ireland. \nLiz and Dan have taken the stage at premier folk venues throughout New England\, including Club Passim\, the Acadia Trad Festival\, Maine Celtic Celebration\, Little Sea Folk Festival\, and the Boston Celtic Music Festival. They are sought-after teachers\, and have shared their craft with students at camps\, festivals\, and community music schools. \nTheir album\, At Long Last (2018)\, explores heartache\, wonder\, and joy\, expressed through the traditional music they love. \nLiz Faiella’s study of Irish fiddling\, training in classical violin\, and love of social dancing have shaped her musical approach. Liz is chair of the Folk Department at the Concord Community Music School in Concord\, NH\, where she teaches fiddle students and organizes the Music School’s Fall Fiddle Festival. She also is active as a YouTube creator\, sharing fiddle tunes\, tutorials\, and techniques far and wide. \nDan Faiella is a guitarist specializing in traditional Celtic music. Trained as an accompanist through years of playing for New England contradances and for Irish fiddlers\, he has performed at venues and festivals around the country with numerous traditional music groups. In his solo playing\, Dan’s fingerstyle arrangements of traditional songs and tunes draw extensively on techniques and ornamentation from traditional idioms beyond those directly related to the guitar\, such as Celtic harp-playing\, sean-nós singing\, and uilleann piping. Over many years of playing solo and collaboratively\, he has developed an ability to adapt and synthesize these sounds into the context of the unique arrangement capabilities of the guitar. \nJoin Liz and Dan in the museum’s Dane Street Program Center for a great afternoon of traditional Irish music! \n+++ \nTickets: $20 per person \nPurchase online prior to 2:00pm on Saturday\, June 7; after that time\, please purchase at the door.

SUMMARY:Side by Each | Concerts in West K with Mousam River Music
DESCRIPTION:The Museum’s Concert Partner Mousam River Music Presents: \nTwo of Maine’s musical power couples – Don & Cindy Roy and Erica Brown & Matt Shipman – join forces in Side by Each. The roots run deep in this dynamic and exciting quartet! Don and Cindy’s music (fiddle\, piano\, and step-dancing) goes back to their respective families who hailed from Quebec and the Canadian Maritimes. In 2018\, they were awarded a National Heritage Fellowship from the National Endowment for the Arts as leading exponents of Franco-American traditional music in Maine. \nErica Brown began studying fiddle with Don when she was eight years old. She has developed into a virtuosic fiddler and singer whose music fits right in with Don & Cindy as if they had never stopped playing together. In addition to her mastery of Franco-American music she and husband Matt Shipman (guitar and bouzouki) also pursue a career in Bluegrass and Country music. They lead the five piece group\, Erica Brown and the Bluegrass Connection; the trio\, Darlin’ Corey; and the country swing band\, Haggard & Cashed. \nSuperb fiddling from Don and Erica! Rock-solid\, tasteful accompaniment from Cindy and Matt! Cindy’s lively step-dancing and podorythmie! Great vocals! It all adds up to an exciting afternoon of music and fun! Don’t miss it! \n+++ \nTickets: $25 per person \nPre-purchase is now closed – please purchase tickets at the door!  \nQuestions or want to reserve cash seats? Email: paul.wells@mousamrivermusic.net
