We’ve combined the intimacy of a house concert with the spirit, love and music of our beloved Getaway weekend. We kept what we could of the schedule, traditions, concerts, workshops, meals, and music, and kept our Chaircouple, Mark & Robin. We adapted it all to a commuters weekend where we sleep at home or a nearby hotel.

Everyone must show proof of full vaccination to attend. Workshops and meals will be outdoors, where masks are optional. Concerts are indoors, where N95 or equivalent masks are required to be worn over both the mouth and nose, except while performing on stage. Safety guidelines are easing generally, but ours may not.
