Wood Day in Canterbury, NH

I had the pleasure of making music with Frank "Doc" Rudolph (fiddle) and Desmaris (Hammered Dulcimer and Piano) at the WOOD DAY event in Canterbury, NH. I've included info below about the event. Click on the title to see some video clips: Canterbury Folk 1 Canterbury Folk 2 - music starts at about 2:00 Canterbury Folk 3 Wood Days Wood Days, an event like no other, is settling into its new home, (and date- the first weekend in June). After 16 years at Canterbury Shaker Village Wood Days moved a mile and a quarter up Shaker Road to Dave and Anne Emerson's Old Ways Traditions. The many elements of the event- great food, old time and traditional music, demonstrations of a large variety of woodworking skills, hands on woodworking for kids and adults, and antique tools and machinery for all to try and/or see operating have proven to be a fine fit in their new location. Dave's old business of 20 years, Shaker Pine, burned in a spectacular fire. It's been reincarnated as Old Ways Traditions and reinvented as the new location for Wood Days and its sister event, Old Ways Days, the third weekend in October. The fire provided the impetus for a rebuild that has worked out well for the events and for our woodworking-environmental program which now has its own space in our main building.
