Description
The 15th annual Portsmouth Maritime Folk Festival showcases music from the US, British Isles and Canada at venues in the Market Square area. It will kick off early with a Thursday evening lecture at the Portsmouth Athenaeum with “New Hampshire and the American Clipper Ship Era,” by scholar Glenn Knoblock.
A Saturday evening concert will be held at the First Methodist Church on Miller Ave. This is an all-ages event with audience participation strongly encouraged!
The Portsmouth Book & Bar will host the Sunday sing from 2:00-4:30PM – and yes! it’s that kind of bar, so bring your thirst for a fine craft brew when you come!
