Strawberry Park Folk Music and Dance Festival
September 13-16
Strawberry Park, Preston CT
This may be pushing the envelope for an outdoor festival in Connecticut, but the lineup is ambitious, and the venue is conducive to a campfire and a sweater. The weekend is supposed to be sunny and seasonable, and the music will definitely be cool. You'll recognize names like Richie Havens and Jonathan Edwards, but keep your ear peeled for Rani Arbo and daisy mayhem, Richard Shindell, Nerissa and Katryna Nields, David Mallet and Girl Howdy.
