Join one the region’s largest music and environmental gatherings along the Hudson River with the Clearwater Festival on Saturday and Sunday, June 20-21. The annual event, also known as Clearwater’s Great Hudson River Revival, takes place at Croton Point Park and will feature seven sustainably powered stages with diverse music, dance, storytelling and family-oriented programming as well as a juried Handcrafters’ Village, the Green Living Expo, the Working Waterfront with small boat exhibits and rides, the Artisanal Food & Farm Market, environmental education displays and exhibits, and the Circle of Song where audience participation is the focus. Inspired by Pete Seeger’s desire to clean up the river over forty years ago, the festival initially helped raise the funds to build the sloop Clearwater, which has since become a world-renowned floating classroom and a symbol of effective grassroots action. Today, Hudson River Sloop Clearwater, Inc. is a non-profit organization that sails at the forefront of the nation’s environmental challenges. The revenue raised by the event goes to support Clearwater’s numerous educational programs and its work toward environmental and social justice—as well as keeping the sloop Clearwater afloat. |
