Antenna Cloud Farm's exciting 2018 season


Friday, June 8, marks the kickoff event for Antenna Cloud Farm's exciting 2018 season, with an outdoor concert by LADAMA, an internationally-acclaimed roots/pop/folk collective that hails from across Latin America. They have been in residence for the past two weeks so we've had quite a few sneak peeks...this show is going to be spectacular! (that link will take you to a live Facebook stream from Antenna Cloud Farm)
For ticket-holding guests, please see below for some useful information.

WHAT TO EXPECT:
- Festival grounds open at 6 pm with an outdoor opening reception. Enjoy freshly-baked chocolate chip cookies, Jen's Bread, locally-crafted Upinngil cheese, and drinks for a suggested donation.
- The concert will begin at 7 pm and end around 8:15 or 8:30. Join us for a post-show bonfire!

WHAT TO BRING:
- This is an outdoor event. You are welcome to bring a small blanket to sit on, or sit on the grass. We also suggest bringing some bug spray.
