It’s been almost 3 years since we started this whole Brewster Productions thing, and this year, we’ve been honored with a nomination as a finalist for the Plymouth Cultural Council ARTY Award for significant contribution to the artistic and creative culture in Plymouth. We’re incredibly honored to get this nod and recognition of our hard work and dedication in our hometown. Hopefully we’ll win, but hey if we don’t win against, say, the oldest museum in the entire USA, that’s okay – it’s pretty cool just to be a finalist. Here’s the little description we got in the invitation to the fundraiser dinner (May 7 @ the Radisson in Plymouth), where they’ll be giving out the awards:

Founded in 2007 by Jonathan Dorn, Scott McEwen and Harry Quinn, Brewster Productions’ mission was to empower the youth of Plymouth to engage in musical and creative expression. The series began as a fundraiser for Plymouth schools with six young bands participating in an all-day event. It was called Schoolhouse Rock and soon morphed into the Schools’ Out Summer Concert Series. Alternating between Pilgrim Memorial Park and the Hedge House lawn, the series continues to allow the best in high school and college talent the opportunity to band together for unique artistic expression. Brewster Productions has expanded its boundaries to include producing venues in other states to help promote the talents and expand the careers of young original performers.

Thank you to the Plymouth Cultural Council for the finalist nomination. And be sure to come see BEN CARTER & SHAUN DEVER this Thursday at Sweetwater Cafe!!
