Schoharie Crossing State Historic Site (opens in a new tab) has announced the second year for the Putman Porch Music (opens in a new tab) series will start on Thursday, June 2^nd at 6:00pm. The series invites local musicians to come spend an evening on the historic Putman Canal Store porch to jam and enliven the vibe of the former Erie Canal stop off. Putman’s store building is located at Yankee Hill Lock on the grounds of Schoharie Crossing, 553 Queen Anne Road.

Musicians with an interest in American roots, bluegrass and folk music are encouraged to spend some time on the porch and be a part of a great experience. Much like a group of canawlers that happen to be stuck waiting at the lock, a few instruments and strong voices is all that is needed to pass the time.

Putman Porch Music will occur every Thursday in June from 6:00pm to 8:00pm. These are free events open to the public.

The grounds for the site are open all year from dawn until dusk.

For more information contact the site: SchoharieCrossing@parks.ny.gov (opens in a new tab) (518) 829-7516.
