Greetings – Wow, this past weekend sure was cold! I’m amazed by the intrepid folks who came in for the concerts, filling the room with songs, applause and body heat. Everyone knows that Saratoga blossoms in the summer season. But the Caffe Lena crowd is here year round doing its “thing” even when the snow is falling, the parks empty out, and the horses head south.

This week that “thing” includes open mics for musicians and storytellers, concerts and lessons for kids, mid-day gatherings for adults to make music together. And then there’s Shakespeare Scenes acted by students from Skidmore and area pros, radio star Steve Forbert, one of our favorite emerging folk acts, and more!

See at the show,
Sarah
