We’re doing another Homegrown Music Video Festival this year. Filmmakers draw a song at random from a beautiful top hat, then make a music video from said song.
Here is the PDD link to last year.
Would you be willing to donate a song or two to the cause?
Would you like to make a music video for a free pass to Homegrown?

Vintage Vogue: A Century of Chic
Saturday, April 9, 5 p.m.
Glensheen, the historic Congdon estate
Tickets | More information
A benefit for Glensheen and the Douglas County Historical Society
Fasten your fashionable seat belt; this runway will transport you from the 1900s to the 1970s, one fabulous outfit at a time. A station tour of Glensheen, refreshments, and a silent auction (checks and cash only, please) add to the fun. And it’s a fundraiser of historic proportions: money raised will be used for the Douglas County Historical Society and Glensheen.
Why isn’t anyone talking about this? I ran across it by accident and I think it’s awesome. (Though I’ll sadly be out of town.)
Barnstormer 4 | Tuesday, April 26
Featuring Sondre Lerche, Guards, and the Romany Rye
Free Range Film Festival Barn in Wrenshall
The gin may not be cold (or available), but the dancing is certainly hot in the Duluth Playhouse’s production of Chicago. Set in a Prohibition-era Windy City, Chicago is inhabited by irredeemable (yet likable) hucksters and hustlers, all dancing for their lives. The bondage-lite costumes and the spare, gritty set only rarely hint at the Jazz Age, but that’s just as well: the story at the heart of Chicago, about crime, corruption, sensational journalism, the cult of celebrity and all that jazz, feels contemporary and relatable.
