Wassaic Project—2nd Year

OK, so it feels almost like half a century has passed by since my move to New York, yet it is also strange to type about a festival I performed at last summer and now am showing at once again, as though it were a blink of the eye in some ways. How can a year feel long and short all at the same time? I am at a loss.

Anyways, I will be telling people their HEXAHEXAFLEXAGON Fortunes up at Wassaic this summer…

The Wassaic Project Summer Festival is a FREE, annual, multi-disciplinary festival held in Wassaic, NY with over 75 national artists, 20 bands, 5 guest curators, poetry readings, film screenings, performances, and much more.

This FREE convergence in Wassaic, NY, will inspire you to be a better person.

Housed in and around historic buildings in Wassaic, NY, The Wassaic Project’s summer festival escapes the white walls of traditional art spaces and focuses on site-sensitive installations and performances. This festival creates a weekend-long opportunity for the public, as well as artists of all mediums, to come together, exchange ideas, learn new things, and engage in a thriving community.

Participants are encouraged to come for the day or stay the weekend camping onsite.  Programming is cutting-edge yet predominantly family friendly.  The beautiful Hamlet of Wassaic is remarkably accessible from NYC and a short walk from the Wassaic MetroNorth train station.
