Dear friends near and far, let's welcome our new Creative Director, Andrea Vincent! Andrea is returning east after five years as Executive Director at the Dawson City Music Festival Association. Some of you may also know Andrea from the early years of Lawnya Vawnya in St. John's. It's been said that Sackville is like a living room, and Sappy is a lot like summer camp for grown-ups. Andrea recalls fond memories of a trip to the festival back when Sappyfest was elementary-aged that felt just like that. Taking up residence in a Squire Street backyard, warm sun and slow strolls around a playful town, coffee in hand (careful with the wind!), long summer evenings punctuated by live music, and even a roller derby with BA selling hot dogs. An event at every turn. We can't wait for Andrea to meet the Cube! But more importantly, we can't wait to work together in bringing us all back to Bridge Street this summer, swamp magic permitting.
