Folk singer, songwriter and educator SALLY ROGERS has performed from coast to coast for forty years! She has performed for audiences around the world at festivals, concerts, schools, and most any other public place you can imagine. Sally is equally talented at stirring a crowd to sing, or at using music to draw out even the shyest child in a classroom to become an active and enthusiastic participant.

Widely known for her crystal clear voice, Sally accompanies herself with guitar, banjo and mountain dulcimer. Many of these instruments are used in her solo performances, as a duo with her husband Howie Bursen, with long-time buddy Claudia Schmidt, or as part of her interactive school residencies.

To date, Sally has recorded five solo albums, four children’s recordings, two albums with Howie Bursen, four albums with Claudia Schmidt, and has participated in numerous other recording projects. Her most recent collaborative album, We are Welcomed, was released in 2016.

In addition to your musical talents, Sally is an accomplished textile artist, creating unique and colorful quilt panels. Her work will be on display and available for viewing during her performance.

Join us for an evening of original music and art work by this outstanding artist! This special program will include songs about textiles, some commentary on the quilts and the songs you expect to hear from Sally. This program is hosted by the "Eastern Connecticut Center for History, Art, and Performance" (EC-CHAP). Doors 7:00pm / Show 7:30pm. Tickets $20.00 Advance (Online) / $25.00 Door.
