Reggie Harris

For over 40 years Reggie Harris has earned acclaim and respect from peers and audiences alike throughout the U.S., Canada, Europe and around the world. He combines spirituals and roots music, historic inspiration, and moving original songs, often in the themes of unity and social justice. Reggie is part of the solution. His marvelous music, his hard-earned wisdom, and his loving presence lift up any room he enters.

Magpie

Magpie is the duo of Terry Leonino and Greg Artzner. Award-winning recording artists, singers, songwriters, musical historians, playwrights, actors and social activists, Terry and Greg are proud to be, as Pete Seeger said of them, “…more links in the chain”, dedicating their lives and music to leaving this world a better place. “…simply, absolutely, unequivocally wonderful…” said London’s Melody Maker.

Thomasina Winslow

Sarah Craig, manager of the famed Caffe Lena, says “Thomasina Winslow’s unique blues path winds through Delta roadhouses, coffeehouse stages where singer/songwriters flourish, and then into the church pew where blues lovers seek the light on Sunday morning.” Her dad Tom Winslow wrote the Clearwater standard, “Hey Looka Yonder,” and brought Thomasina to perform on Pumpkin Sail stages as a teenager. She has since appeared at many Revivals and toured nationally and internationally.

Dean Stevens

Born and raised in Costa Rica, Dean Stevens absorbed the musical and topical influences of Central America. He returns there frequently and has become known for his humanitarian efforts
on behalf of refugees returning to their homes in El Salvador and Guatemala. He is a formidable creator and interpreter of songs in English and Spanish; his own material explores a variety of personal and social topics, paints sketches of people and places, celebrates the Earth, and annoys the narrow-minded.

The post Pumpkin Sail Concert 2020 Update: How the Tradition will Continue…FREE..please donate appeared first on Good News!.

Come and join the fun as we celebrate the International Day of Peace on the “Ship of Humanity” commandeered by the Arts Olympus, with the collaboration of Voices of Women Worldwide, Peace Islands Institute, World Peace Prayer Society, and the New York Rotary Club. The evening’s cruise begins with the beat of a Calypso steel band joyfully creating music for passengers as they board. With all on ship, we set sail to witness the dramatic views of the New York City skyline. We serenely pass under the Brooklyn Bridge and then on out to the spectacular bay with the Statue of Liberty so proudly standing. From there it’s on to the waters near the United Nations where a flag raising ceremony takes place in celebration of the International Day of Peace with Ambassadors, Delegates and many members of the UN in attendance. The World Peace Prayer Society’s representative to the UN, in a moment of prayer, will lead a candle lighting ceremony dedicated to the heart breaking loss of so many children caught in war all over the globe. The gifted young Tarumi Violinists, having played the world over including the Vatican, will do a special performance devoted to children that are suffering in so many parts of the world today. The profits from ticket sales go specifically to benefit the Syrian children living in refugee camps. The New York Rotary Club will send out a global appeal to other clubs worldwide to help match the contributions to help the Syrian children.

In these turbulent times it is all the more important that people everywhere come together in support of peaceful solutions to the world’s problems. We hope that you will join our efforts in this festive occasion and celebrate, in this unique way, the International Day of Peace on our “Ship of Humanity.” If you are not able to join us on ship but would like to join us in heart go to our website www.artsolympus.org and make a tax deductible donation today. We thank you.

Sincerely,

Robert Slaughter

Epitaph / Farewell letter that I’m placing with Angel when I bury her on Towd Point and that I posted on Facebook
December 4th, 2012

Enjoy the Towd Point Sunsets
My Beautiful Angel ___ …

Enjoy your gait, as you prance across the stars.
Enjoy your wings, as you sail across to Samadhi.

Enjoy the sounds you hear,
Now that the noise is all forgotten.
Enjoy the effortless breath of your now eternal life,
In the Mystic, in the Moonlight, by the Oceans Sands of Time

Of all the world class love affairs that have blessed my life across the years, none were quite so sweet, so gentle,
so tender, nor so dear.

We whispered words of love within our glances
and throughout our joys, in our moments spent together,
clinging to one another’s side.

So Enjoy the Serene, the Sublime, the Peace, the Divine,
for you are on your way to Heaven, now, to Bliss
and in My Heart and Soul Forever,

and My Love For You
and Memories of Our Time Together
Will Never Die ___…
