Freedom's Heart and Home

Join us for “Freedom’s Heart and Home” on July 19th at 3pm on the beautiful front lawn of the Granger Homestead in Canandaigua. The Finger Lakes Choral Festival will sing selections from "New Land, New Covenant," inspiring and uplifting music by world renowned composer, Howard Hanson, of Eastman School of Music fame. "New Land, New Covenant" was composed in 1976 to celebrate the nation's Bicentennial. Hear it now in its 50th anniversary season! Accompanied by Ines Draskovic, the chorus will also perform celebratory patriotic anthems for the occasion.

Pack a picnic and enter the patriotic picnic contest with prizes provided by Fort Hill Performing Arts Center and the Granger Homestead. Let’s turn the lawn red, white, and blue! Wine and beer will be available for purchase – please limit your carry-in picnic to food and non-alcoholic beverages.
