WHERE & WHEN:

Bucks County Folk Song Society holds its regular monthly meetings at

Wrightstown Friends Meetinghouse
PA Rte 413 (Durham Rd.)
Wrightstown, PA

The meetinghouse is on the west side of the road, just south of the intersection with Penns Park Rd. It's about 3 miles north of Newtown and 1 mile south of Rte. 232. For an interactive map, click here: Map to Meetinghouse.

Meetings are normally held on the first Sunday of every month, but occasionally switch to the second Sunday when the first is on a holiday weekend. Check the calendar to be sure.

The festivities begin around 6:30 and end promptly at 10:00pm.

MEETING FORMATS:

Monthly meetings normally begin with one of two musical formats:
- Circle (usually 20-30 performers, once around) with song/story/dance presentations relating to a predetermined theme. Upcoming themes are listed in the calendar below. Click CIRCLE PHOTO GALLERY for a peek at a past circle meeting.
  OR
- Featured Performer or series of performers. Performers are usually BCFSS members, but occasionally we feature guests from neighboring societies. All performers volunteer their time and talents. Click FEATURE PHOTO GALLERY for a peek at a past feature meeting, but be prepared for a wait of a minute or so.

UPCOMING MEETING CALENDAR:

Here's what on the meeting calendar for the coming months:


PREVIOUS DATES	To give you a better picture of our activities, we list the musical features of our past meetings on a separate page. Click HERE.

July 13, 2008 NOTE: 2nd Sunday CIRCLE: Salute to the States	Inspired by the Independence Day holiday, the first states that come to mind are the 50 that make up the USA, but we're betting that our creative songmeisters can come up with references to many other states, geopolitical and otherwise (state of anxiety, perhaps). Our usual hour or two of eating, jamming, and socializing will follow.

August 3, 2008 FEATURE: To Be Announced	We'll have some performer(s) to put on a show for us, but we don't yet know who. Our usual hour or two of eating, jamming, and socializing will follow.

September 7, 2007 CIRCLE: No Theme	Those us who spend the weekend at the Doylestown Arts Fest often lose consciousness by meeting time, so this will be an open circle with no theme, just to make life easy. Yes, we know -- the lack of a theme makes it harder for some. Our usual hour or two of eating, jamming, and socializing will follow.
