Harvest Sun Music Fest August 20th & 21st, 2022 – Announced!
 
Hello Harvest Sunners!

We are so very excited to announce that we will be hosting an ‘On The Ground’ event this summer in Kelwood! We are very grateful to have been able to weather the last few years and continue to provide ongoing support for Manitoban artists. . . and as we head into the coming weeks and months we will preparing to host artists in Kelwood once again! If the last few years have taught us anything, it is that allowing room for growth and the evolution of an idea contributes greatly to our ability to create and build resiliency. So, in keeping with that spirit of change and growth, the 2022 Harvest Sun will look a little different.


There will be multiple venues through the town, bringing music to the heart of the Outdoor Quilt Show, the market space and large tent will be adjacent to The Barn at the entrance of town, there will be musical performances on Saturday throughout the town, locations to be announced, music all day in the main tent on Saturday & Sunday. . .each performance will be OPEN TO ALL on an Admission by Donation basis. We will be ‘passing the hat’ at each show and there will be an online advance ‘passing of the hat’ available if you so desire.


We are so pleased and filled with gratitude to be able to share art in this way with all of you, our community!

The Eleanor Rose Outdoor Quilt Show will take place on Saturday August 20th, the Makers Market will operate in the large tent adjacent to The Barn all wkd! Pop by and support our local makers, growers, artists and shakers! Music will be happening both Saturday, through the town and Sunday in the main tent!

More info, music schedule and lineup to be announced soon, we promise! Make plans to come for the day (or both!) bring a hat and a chair and dance your way through town! Yeehaw!

Hello Harvest Sunners!

It is hard to believe that it is already August 21st!

2021 has been quite the adventure! We have continued to adapt and grow as we have navigated the new challenges presented to us, but we are so filled with gratitude as we bring to a close an amazing summer of Harvest Sun pop ups! We were able to successfully bring LIVE music to several small prairie towns and in celebration of our 16th Annual Harvest Sun we are very excited to be able to share a wonderful documentary of our summer pop up journey here! (Click the video above to watch!)

We are so very grateful to all of the hard work that our performers put into their performances this year...and here is to looking forward to some more live action music, dancing and merry making this fall as we continue to support our artists by sharing more live music with you during the Fall Edition of our Harvest Sun ReImagined : Art Across The Prairies musical pop up series!!

Stay up to date here on the website as we will be posting and keeping everyone informed moving forward about times, dates and locations as we move forward into the fall!

Sending so much love and best wishes from our family to yours!!

Nadia, Delano, Simon & Sophie and the whole Harvest Sun Crew!
