Come and enjoy a Celtic Celebration on SATURDAY, MARCH 15 at 3PM and bring the whole family!
We will celebrate St. Patrick’s Day, Celtic culture and the impending arrival of spring by presenting a performance by Parents’ Choice Award winning performer, Davis Bates in the Brenner Room. This program was co-sponsored by the Rockport Cultural Council and will include traditional songs and tales from Ireland, Scotland & Wales, sea songs & chanteys, ghost stories and family tales. There will also be plenty of sing-alongs, a short lesson in how to play music with spoons from a kitchen drawer, and an appearance by an Irish dancing wooden dog named Bingo.
Davis’ traditional and participatory performance style empowers and encourages audiences of all ages to join in the fun, and to take the songs and stories home with them to share with others. He also encourages listeners to remember and share stories and songs from their own family and cultural traditions. Pete and Toshi Seeger called Davis “thoughtful, creative, human, and a fantastic storyteller.”

The performance is recommended for ages 6+
