Watertown’s Porchfest is back and expanded, with more than 180 performances at locations around town, and after hour events. See the announcement from the Porchfest committee below.
Porchfest is returning for its 2nd year, this Saturday, May 17th from 12-6 p.m. with After Hours from 6-9 p.m.!
Porchfest is a day of free music performed outside of people’s homes – on porches, patios, driveways, and lawns. This year there are 180+ performances at 70+ locations spread throughout the city.
Start the day with the Watertown Public Arts and Culture Committee’s celebration of the new sculptures on the Community Sculpture Walk. Meet at 11 a.m. at the Linear Path behind City Hall and Saltonstall Park to hear talks from the sculptors and hear music from Watertown school bands.
Then head to the Porchfest website to find info on block parties and see the full map and schedule for all the music going on in the city starting at 12 p.m.!
After the day is done, head out for After Hours from 6-9 p.m. with food and drink at Ritcey East with music by Shadows on the Mountain, Phil and the Flying Leap, and Bry Tobin! And head over to WCA-TV’s studio to join in some Mario Kart while the MIT Video Game Orchestra plays the course music!
