Milford has announced that it will bring back PorchFest for a second year on Oct. 2 from 1 p.m. to 6 p.m.
PorchFest is an annual music event held across the country on front porches. Bands, singers and instrumentalists of all genres are encouraged to sign up and participate in the event. Signs with artists’ names and performance times will be posted in front of porches and online.
The event started in Ithaca, New York in 2007 to bring local musicians and neighborhoods together to celebrate and create a sense of community.
A digital map will be continuously updated for location information and GPS mapping on the day of the event. Plan to walk, ride bikes or push strollers from one porch to another along a determined route to partake in the festivities.
To play in PorchFest, sign up at forms.gle/rDTW7p26tLQNFSFj7. To offer a porch, sign up at forms.gle/FRQYncnYeh29VNDN9. The deadline to register is Wednesday, Sept. 1 by 5 p.m.
