Please join us for a FREE musical program in the Meeting House on Bentley Avenue @ 3:30-4:30pm on Sunday, October 18th. Hosted by the Poultney Historical Society and sponsored by the Vermont Humanities Council, singer and researcher Linda Radtke, joined by pianist Arthur Zorn, brings Vermont history to life with engaging commentary about the songs found in the Vermont Historical Society's collection of sheet music. Dressed in period costume and using the music Vermonters published and sang in their communities, Ms. Radtke guides listeners through our state’s history, from the earliest published song, “Green Mountain Farmer” (1798), through 1850 temperance ballads and Civil War era songs, to songs about Vermonters Calvin Coolidge, Thomas Dewey, and Jim Fisk.
