A cup of coffee, a windbreaker, and thou…
Princeton Porchfest 2023 will take place tomorrow, from 12 to 6 p.m.
Dozens of performers, bands, and singer-songwriters will present classical, jazz, blues, hip-hop, bluegrass, Americana, alternative, and rock.
According to the Arts Council of Princeton, the event is a “walkable music festival where neighbors offer up their front porches as DIY concert venues. Talented local performers play rotating sets throughout the neighborhood during this day-long celebration of music, art and our wonderful community. Stroll from porch to porch to enjoy live, local talent.”
Among that talent will be mezzo-soprano Kelly Guerra, who sang the role of Ruth Bader Ginsburg in Derrick Wang’s opera “Scalia/Ginsburg” at last year’s The Princeton Festival. Guerra will return in June to sing Rosina in Rossini’s “The Barber of Seville.” (The Princeton Festival will be held at Morven Museum & Garden, June 9-25.) Hear her tomorrow, from the porch of 71 Wiggins Street, at 2 p.m.
There’s occasional rain in the forecast, with temperatures in the lower 50s, so bring an umbrella and a sweater and fortify yourself with cheering edibles. The music will go on, rain or shine!
