Sandburg Sing-Alongs
August 10, 2021 @ 5:00 pm - 6:30 pm
Carl Sandburg Home National Historic Site will offer monthly Sandburg Sing-alongs beginning in August. The Sing-alongs celebrate the Sandburg family’s love of music and singing. Musicians will lead the audience in familiar songs, with lyrics provided. Sing-alongs will be held in the park’s amphitheater and are free and open to the public.
Due to COVID19 considerations, audience size will be limited to 100 visitors. Please maintain social distancing from people not in your group.
The park shuttle will operate from the front lake bridge shuttle stop to the amphitheater for the Sing-alongs.
On August 10, Tom Fisch, will lead the Sing-along. Tom is a guitar player, song writer, producer, and overall lover of music. Tom has lived in western North Carolina for over fifteen years and uses the Blue Ridge Mountains for inspiration. He enjoys traveling and performing at colleges, clubs, coffeehouses, festivals, and fairs. Wherever he performs, audiences connect with the warm, appealing style, diverse range of material, and talent this seasoned performer brings to the stage.
Restrooms and a water bottle filling station are available near the main parking lot. Due to ongoing issues with a water pump, the restrooms and water bottle filling station near the Sandburg Home are closed, however portable toilets are available nearby. Visitors are asked to bring their own drinking water.
