  • Club 47 ® Club 47 ®
    Club 47 ® Club 47 ® Honoring the past, Celebrating the future The Club 47 concert series, across the years and around the country, has been a club house for stars of the acoustic music world and a springboard for emerging talent. Most of all, it’s been an extraordinary musical experience for millions of fans of all ages, in concert halls and on radio and television. Here’s how it began. The Club 47 once was a coffee house in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Although it was only open ten years (January, 1958 to April, 1968) and seated only about 80 people, it became the flagship of the Boston area’s coffee house armada and one of the centers of the 1960s folk music revival. It hosted many of the heroes of traditional music: Appalachian dulcimer players, Cowboy singers and storytellers, Delta blues men and women, gospel groups, Celtic artists, jug bands, bluegrass bands... legendary artists from around the globe. You could also hear new voices at the Club 47 ... the young Joan Baez trying out a Child ballad for the first time, or that new kid, Bob Dylan, up from New York, testing the crowd’s reaction to some new lyrics set to an old melody. Judy Collins, Richie Havens, Van Morrison, Eric Anderson, Tom Paxton, John Hammond, Tom Rush and a host of others came to that tiny room, and learned. They learned how to listen, sitting at the feet of giants. They learned songs, and how to sing and play them. And when they took their turns on that stage, they learned how to make those songs their own, and how to build new ones on the firm foundation of tradition, and began..

    Artpark Archival Collection At The Burchfield Penney Art Center Archives Gift of Earl W. Brydges Artpark State Park 2013; A2013.017 Title: Artpark Archival Collection Name and Location of Repository: Burchfield Penney Art Center Date: 1970 - 2010 (Inclusive Dates) 1974-2005 (General Bulk Dates) Extent: 118.979 linear feet of textual, photographic and audio-visual materials Name of Creator: Earl W. Brydges Artpark State Park Administrative History: Artpark is currently (as of 2021) a 154-acre State Park along the Niagara River Gorge, located on the American side of the American-Canadian border in Lewiston, NY. It was initially created to develop tourism around local historic attractions and revitalize the area following late 1950s development of the New York State Power Authority power plant in Niagara Falls. Over- developed and costly theater construction under State Senator Earl W. Brydges in this direction of cultural development, said to be modeled after the Saratoga Performing Arts Center, resulted in a consulting emergency between the Natural Heritage Trust, the New York State Office of Parks and Recreation, and national experts and local cultural community leadership. This included the arts administration consulting firm Arts Development Associates (which had helped with the Lincoln Center), and a Steering Committee involving, amongst many, Niagara University Theater director Brother Augustine Towey, C.M., and Haudenosaunee Council on the Arts founder and artist Duffy Wilson. As a result, Artpark (or the Artpark program at the Earl W. Brydges Artpark) emerged from the Niagara Frontier Performing Arts Center, and in 1973 was established as a publicly-funded state park dedicated to all of the arts, with portions of support coming from earned revenue, grants and contributions.

Not knowing many people, I usually ended up watching the band. This is how I first heard and met Jack Ingram, a fledgling performer and SMU ATO. At the time, none of us could know Ingram was a harbinger of a generation of Texas musicians who, inspired by Robert Earl Keen, would lead a resurgence of interest in original, Texas country music, an echo of the progressive country of the music of Ingram’s, Kilian’s, and my childhood.

Our association with the Sisters Cities committees offers an opportunity to expand and diversify such educational opportunities in a manner that can only be of benefit to Belfast as well as Queen's. We welcome the opportunity to work together in creating new international synergies in research and education for the benefit of our local communities.” Tourism Ireland “Tourism Ireland is committed to working in partnership with organisations and agencies to raise the number of tourists coming from the US to Northern Ireland. The association of Belfast with Nashville at the level of the mayor’s office and the Sister Cities committees has led to increased attention to Belfast by respected American musicians and broadcasters.
