Join us for Carsie Blanton in Concert: Creative Revolution
Saturday, July 13 • 5 to 9 PM
Oh, friends, do we have a glorious special reveling rebellion brilliant creative treat for you coming this summer!
We are extremely proud to announce that singer/songwriter and activist Carsie Blanton is coming to join us for an intimate house concert and celebration of the Virtual Food Hub being imagined into being by the education/hospitality center, The Inn At Kirkside.
Carsie is a true delight, with a voice dripping in velvet, a wit that cuts through glass (ceilings and otherwise!), and a heart filled with rage and love and endless hope.
A Reveling Rebellion
The word Spillian means to revel in Old English. It comes from the same root word as rebel and frivol…delightful reveling rebellion is in our blood. This summer, in the mountains that have birthed protest music that has changed the world, we’re offering a unique chance to rebel with piped piper extraordinaire, Carsie Blanton.
And in that spirit, we’d like to celebrate a small but important bit of rebellion fighting against the corporatization and globalization of the food industry: an emerging project to bring our Catskills farmers, restaurateurs, and hoteliers so we can all thrive. The Kirkside Virtual Food Hub will break the craziness of food going from Delaware County to NYC just to come back for sale, and build truly fresh, truly local food, its story and connections to our residents and visitors so we all can thrive. The Kirkside Virtual Food Hub is a brainchild of The MARK Project and its flagship effort to invent new ways to bring community and visitor resources together in learning and play at the Inn at Kirkside.
Here’s a little taste of Carsie’s magic to whet your whistle. She’s a fierce protector of the underdog, a poker at the excesses of capitalism, and a brilliantly reveling rebel.
