Friday Night after the Concert

somersetsgottalentFriends Playing for Friends

About 10pm: Join us in the Atrium for a relaxed get-together where you can listen and enjoy the music, or other talents, of your Somerset friends. We'll have the stage set with a few microphones, a few harps and turn the "show" over to participants. Those who would like to play, sing or dance or do their comedy routine, are asked to sign-up in advance at the registration desk on Friday. We'll have an Emcee handy to keep things moving along. Participants will get a Somerset's Got Talent t-shirt for their efforts.
