June 20-23, 2024 National Women’s Music Festival – I can’t count how many times I’ve been to National! I started out volunteering in the early 1990s, then I started working stage crew with Linda Wilson – who is still working crew and So Much More! I’ve been a stage manager, an emcee, a workshop leader, I’ve performed on every stage in multiple arrangements on multiple instruments, and this marks the 6th year I’ve been the Ukulele Chorus Director. AND this year, I will be co-hosting the Open Mic with Nancy Scott at the Living Room Stage! So excited! Look at this incredible lineup! I bet you recognize some of these names from my radio show, Go Sistah Go. And if you would like to Go Go Go to NWMF, here’s the whole deal: https://nwmf.info/
