On August 1st from 5:30-7 pm, the libraries have partnered with the Mad River Valley Rotary to bring the band "A2VT" to the Mad River Green in Waitsfield. Representing Somalia, Tanzania and Burundi and currently living in Burlington, Vermont, A2VT synthesizes their African musical and dance roots with Western pop and Hip Hop sensibilities. Their songs, performed in up to eight unique languages, reflect their journey from Africa to America, and celebrate the musical collision of two continents and the party that ensues! Bring a picnic dinner and don't forget your dancing shoes!
This event wraps up the Mad River Libraries' "Tails and Tales" summer learning program. It is free and open to all, but we ask you to register so that we can keep you informed of any changes due to weather: https://forms.gle/EEepuVnxQ8bh6tkd7
The libraries would like to thank the Mad River Rotary, the Vermont Department of Libraries, and our Friends organizations for funding this and other summer events.
