The Songbag Concert series continues with Mark Dvorak! Labeled a modern-day troubadour, Mark has never stopped performing, writing and recording music. Dvorak has given concerts in almost all of the United States and made visits to Finland, Canada and Ireland. To date he has released twenty albums of traditional and original music including 2020’s Let Love Go On and 2023’s Live & Alone recorded during the great pandemic. Featuring a mix of traditional and original songs, elements of blues, picking on the banjo, and even references to Carl Sandburg’s writings, this show is sure to have a little bit of something for everyone!
The first set starts at 2:00 p.m. and the second set starts at 3:15 p.m. Refreshments available between sets.
