10/15/16: Visitors to the third annual Borderlands were led on a theatrical adventure through a scenic patch of woods in Shelburne. Along the walk, costumed people performed music, recited poetry and told stories from among the trees. The performers are local teens who graduated from Enchantment Camps to learning The Way of the Bard for the past four years. This event is a fundraiser and in June, the group will travel to Ireland to perform around the countryside as the ancient Bards once did.

Eva met some fairies and got lost in the enchanted forest. You can take a trip to the magical wood October 22 and 23.

Music: Kevin MacLeod, “Frost Waltz,” “Celtic Impulse” & “The Snow Queen”
