DTF Gives Back Program

In looking ahead to a summer filled with big adventures (wilderness, the company of loved ones, the newness of unfamiliar trails, the miraculous production of food or music from what was just bare soil and hands, the electricity of catching fish) in small packages (backpacking overnights, dinners at home, gardens,wildflowers, creeks I've rubbernecked past daily in my commutes) I am always amazed at the rich feast of opportunity southern Vermont has to offer.

Here's one more offering: Dorset Theater Festival Giving Back Promotion.  In this program, community members (firefighters, EMS workers, farmers, teachers, etc.) receive discounted tickets to the DTF's summer series-- give a click to the above link for more information.  They've got a great lineup of shows, and it's a joy to have the chance to experience something like this poem by Lisel Mueller describes.

Here's to the arts, great and small, light with play or heavy with solemnity, public or private in the quietest moments of our days.  Cheers!
