A fine crowd came out on a beautiful spring day to see 17 music acts perform an audio buffet of folk, rock, blues and jazz on two stages at Grounds for Music, sponsored by C3A and Al Bien’s Swarthmore Music. People from the tri-county area and Delaware enjoyed all that the event had to offer: The beautiful grounds, great food, the flea market and Western Chester County Chamber of Commerce tables, earth art sculptures and paintings by Greg Layton, and the talents of 35 regional musicians. It was a terrific day, and many guests and performers requested that we do it again, bigger and better for next June. So we will! Watch for details early next year. And thanks to all our volunteers, performers and vendors for making it possible and making it fun. And a Big Thank You to Al Bien!
