Our thanks to the Arts Council of Rockland County, the Hudson Valley Bluegrass Association, the Town of Ramapo and the friends of Harmony Hall that participated as festival sponsors, advertisers, donors and guests for their support of the Highlands Bluegrass Festival & Craft Fair on September 19 on the Great Lawn of Harmony Hall.

The event also featured the crafts and services of some of the region's most talented artisans, children's games, refreshments and a cook-off event to raise funds for the restoration of Harmony Hall.
