We'd like to share a thank you to everyone who supported the [Foundation Festival]. While we were sad to have had to cancel Ho**er Day yet again we were still able to have 4 other great events that gave dozens of artists the opportunity to share their story with their neighbors. We'll have more to share about how we hope to continue the discussion and then Echo what we can do collectively. In the mean time a big thank you to The Dial, Syllable: The Reading Series, Sea Tea Comedy Theater, KNOW GOOD Market, ReSET (Social Enterprise Trust), Greater Hartford Arts Council, Shoeleather History, all the individual artist and participants and the 1,000+ people who came out to at least one of the events last week.

We are deeply sorry. Due to weather we are canceling Ho**er Day: FF tomorrow. We'd like to thank everyone who helped put the [Foundation Festival] together and were committed to making tomorrow success. Unfortunately Mother nature had other plans on her weekend. We'll be back next year with a more weather resilient event. We aren't done here either, the [Foundation Festival] was just part one, more details to come.

Groups and individuals are invited to begin lining the edge of Bushnell park in designated areas (map below) starting at 11AM. We'll have free face painting at the top of Trinity street. At Noon the festival opens and families and individuals will be called towards the Arch. Then marching groups will descend on our stage on Trinity St. one by one until about 1PM at which point the rest of our Ho**er Day program will begin. If you are looking to march with a group and haven't been in touch yet, please do, we still have time.
