“Fire Within Her: An American Folktale About Women’s Liberation”
Sunday, September 20, 3:00 PM
Hartland native Kendra Comstock brings her Boston-based early music ensemble and guest artists to Vermont this fall, and they will make a stop at Damon Hall! It’s an original folk opera that weaves together the voices of trailblazing women across centuries. From Anne Hutchinson’s defiance in Puritan Boston to Susan B. Anthony’s fight for women’s suffrage to Betty Friedan’s challenge to the “feminine mystique,” their stories unfold through shape-note songs, Shaker hymns, protest anthems, and contemporary folk music. Through resilience, courage, and song, The Fire Within Her ignites the voices of the past to inspire today’s changemakers.

Our Mission Statement

Hartland Community Arts believes that the arts enrich and vitalize the community. We are a local organization that enjoys a long-standing tradition of cultivating and nurturing artistic expression. Our mission is to sustain and broaden this tradition. We accomplish this by promoting local artists, encouraging youth to become involved in the arts, and sponsoring artistic events of all kinds.

More about us:

Hartland Community Arts (HCA) is a non-profit organization whose purpose is to create and sustain an interest in the arts by sponsoring concerts and arts related events for the enjoyment of the general public.

HCA sponsors scholarships for Hartland youths wishing to attend arts related classes, workshops or camps. We also assist in the funding of a transportation program to provide students of the Hartland Elementary School to attend cultural events

A MESSAGE FROM THE HCA BOARD OF DIRECTORS

None of us on the current Board participated years ago when HCA mounted its legendary variety shows. Some of us learned only recently, that HCA fundraised for the original stage lights, the grand piano, the curtains, and the projector screen, and that it mobilized volunteers to paint the interior walls of Damon Hall. What we do know is that today Hartland is a town with a lot of community spirit, thanks to the activities of many community groups, such as HCA. We are working to ensure that Hartland will continue to enjoy the community theater into the future by purchasing additional theatrical lights, and this fundraiser surely will help us achieve that goal. The arts may not fill potholes, but who knows what they may fill?

Thank you for supporting the project, and thank you for supporting the Hartland community.
