Singing our History in the City of Ships |
Alison Lee Freeman presents “Singing our History in the City of Ships” every Wednesday night at 7pm in June, July, and August of 2008 at the Chocolate Church Arts Center Annex in Bath, Maine. Bath is a city rich in traditions, stories, and songs: music of celebration as new ships slipped down the ways into the mighty Kennebec River, sea chanteys to help the sailors raise the sails of their ocean bound ships, gentle music played in the parlors of ship captain’s homes, and songs of temperance as Maine led the country towards prohibition. Join in on the chorus for a journey back in time and enjoy history the old fashioned way through entertaining songs and stories. Freeman performs regularly in Maine, Massachusetts, and Newfoundland at a variety of diverse venues such as the museums, festivals, bookstores, clubs, and assisted living facilities. Recordings are available at The Maine Maritime Museum Gift Shop, Bath Book Shop, and Borders in Brunswick. Call 207-371-2404 for additional details. $10 suggested. No charge for children. Chocolate Church Arts Center 804 Washington Street Bath, Maine
