Join us for the 13th Annual Winter Hoot—a heartwarming, down-to-earth roots music gathering where everyone is welcome, and joy is abundant. Drop by for your favorite bands or activities or stay the whole weekend.

We kick off Friday with a VIP donor reception, a delicious community dinner, lively concert by Jay Ungar & Molly Mason, and jam session. The celebration continues all day and night Saturday with live music from Jim Lauderdale, Guthrie Family Singers, James Felice, The Restless Age, Paper Wings, Bari Koral & Yogapalooza, Buvas, and The Mammals plus blacksmithing demos, mini-concerts in the pewter shop, kids’ zone activities, square dancing, and delicious local food and drink, and a live ice sculpture by Thomas Brown. Sunday morning closes the event with yoga and a heartfelt community singalong. Click to view full Schedule & More Hoot Info.
