Lambertville New Hope Winter Festival 2010 is Hot with Change!
The Winter Festival 2010 will begin on Saturday, January 23rd and ends on Sunday, January 31st. The Winter Festival committee has been very busy over the past year, implementing several new events and activities, highlighting the beauty of our twin river town communities as well as offering truly gifted local talent. For 2010 Winter Festival has discovered a very special locally grown singer songwriter from Hopewell, NJ, who will headline this year’s annual concert. Winter Festival and WXPN have partnered to offer XPN: Welcomes Danielia Cotton on Friday January 29th at the Stephen Buck Theater, New Hope, PA. Danielia Cotton’s natural talent -- raw, searing vocal chops combined with a deep, buttery tone—highlight her rock, jazz, and blues roots. WXPN/Philadelphia, home to the nationally syndicated World Café, named her "Artist to Watch". Her soulful rock performance will be the perfect start to your 2010 Winter Festival weekend. Local favorite; JB Kline Band will be the opening act. We have two new ticketed events this year: The Inn at Lambertville Station Presents: Taste of Winter Fest, Thursday night January 28th from 7pm to 9pm, this new event offers a warm and savory evening of gourmet food and fine wines. The Inn at Lambertville Station has secured many wines exclusively for this event. Their Winter Fest Reserve Wine List will be offered for this evening only as well as local favorite, Unionville Winery. River Horse Brewery and Triumph Brewery will also be offering their exclusive Winter Fest products as well. Savory dishes will be offered in a live table format from seven exquisite local restaurants. A live vocal performance by local Mary Szczesniak accompanied by Tom Bateman will complete this warm Thursday evening. This exclusive event is limited to 125 patrons. This year Winter Festival will kick off slightly earlier with The Greater New Hope Chamber of Commerce presents: Fire and Ice Ball. This modestly priced dress to impress event will be held on Saturday, January 23rd at the New Hope Arts Center. Local DJ Josh Eschen will spin crowd favorites; also includes light refreshments, cash bar, and a dance contest. New Hope Parks & Recreation Presents: Come To The Cabaret!
