Oakhurst Porchfest: Sunday, October 18, 2015 | 2-6pm
Eight years ago in Ithaca, New York, someone had an idea: What if we had an afternoon when porches all over the neighborhood became stages and everyone just walked or biked around listening to musicians, hanging out on lawns and sidewalks, and connecting/reconnecting with their neighbors?
Porchfest, the ultimate grassroots music festival, was born. 100% resident owned and operated, it’s been going and growing every year since. And in that time, other neighborhoods all around the country have taken the model and run with it.
This year — on Sunday, October 18 — Oakhurst is looking to do the same. With the Oakhurst Arts and Music Festival on hiatus due to construction in Harmony Park, and limited time to plan and organize a replacement, a grassroots, neighbor-orchestrated day of music and fun seems the perfect way to bring us all together in a manner that feels distinctly Oakhurst.
