Eight years ago in Ithaca, New York, someone had an idea: What if we had an afternoon when porches all over the neighborhood became stages and everyone just walked or biked around listening to musicians, hanging out on lawns and sidewalks, and connecting/reconnecting with their neighbors? Porchfest, the ultimate grassroots music festival, was born. 100% resident owned and operated, it’s been going

and growing every year since. And in that time, other neighborhoods all around the country have taken the model and run with it. This year Arlington is looking to do the same. The more folks who take ownership of it, the better it will showcase the best of what Arlington can be. You can do this as a porch host (make sure your porch is within the festival boundaries). Or as a performer (anyone’s welcome, wherever you hail from). Or as a volunteer who helps pull the whole thing together. Or simply as a neighbor or visitor wandering about and enjoying the fun.
