Mentorship Award Showcase

Join Alex Caton and the recipients of the 2026 Mentorship Study Award as they play their final concert on Saturday, June 20th, at 3 PM at The Arts Center in Orange. Jake Smith, Sylvie Weidman, and Alex will take you through their 6 months of rigorous and fun study, and you will hear about all the work they accomplished, all the places they played, and the people they met sharing traditional music. There will be a program of incredible Old Time Appalachian and Irish tunes and songs, plus a few special guest musicians. There may also be some spontaneous dancing to participate in or watch- so bring your friends and families to support traditional music in our area. The event is free, but donations are much appreciated.
