Ticket sales - are currently just ahead of the 2018 numbers.
The Workshop scheduling is still in process. Information confirmation is out with the performers. We hope to have the workhsop offering online shortly.
In past years, members of the Morristown Uke Jam have serenaded attendees as they arrive on Friday night. This years organizer has asked if it could be a jam instead. Well sure, so she is putting together a songbook in honor of Woodstock and it will be available to download on our website. Everyone is invited to join in, and all instruments are welcome.
I have been contacted by a church in New Brunswick, who found info on our festival online. They are in their second year of offering a ukulele music camp for kids. The 2019 camp week ends on 8/23 and they have asked if they can bring their campers to the Friday night concert. Yes, of course they can. So they are busing in 50 people, (23 of whom are 12yo or younger - so per FP custom, their addmission is free). They plan arrive in time to participate in the pre-concert jam.
