Finnish folk music camp set
Annual Scandinavian/Log Cabin Day set at IC MuseumCASPIAN—It’s al-most time to celebrate the longest day of the year or Midsummer as it is known in Scandi-navia. Here in Iron County, an enthusiastic group is working on plans for the 38th annual Scan-dinavian/Log Cabin Day celebration at the Iron County Museum. On Saturday, June 23, the plans include a “Living History” experience in and around the Beechwood log cabin in Museum Park. Margaret Scheffer will portray “Ing-aborg,” the lady who supposedly lives in the cabin. She will tell stories about life in a log cabin, share samples of her home-made rye bread that was baked in the old wood stove, hang out hand-washed
clothing and make sa-chets from her dried herbs. It is not only a local practice to celebrate Midsummer, it is also a state celebration. The fourth Sunday in June is designated by Michigan as “Log Cabin Day” in tribute to the Scandinavian early settlers who brought this style of building to the United States. The celebration will start at 10 a.m. and close at 4 p.m. Planning continues for additional events, which include old-time music played out-of-doors (weather permitting); special Norwegian, Swedish, Danish and Finnish exhibits in the Cultural Center; a dance recital in the afternoon by a children’s group from Houghton; a museum tour, and great Scandi-navian refreshments. A reduction in the normal admission do-nation ($6 instead of $8) is possible, as the celebration of Scandi-navian Cultural Heri-tage is sponsored by MCACA, Finn Spark, Inc. and the Iron Coun-ty Iron County His-torical and Museum Society.
HANCOCK--Finland-ia University’s Finnish Council in America and its Finnish Ameri-can Heritage Center will host the second annual Finnish Folk Music Camp from July 17 to 19, on Finlan-dia’s campus here. For the musician, 2012 Music Camp classes include in-struction on guitar, mandolin, fi ddle, kan-tele, bones and spoons, harmonium, voice, and new this year, ac-cordion (button and keyed). Classes are designed to accom-modate beginners and advanced players, with everyone learning new techniques and tunes. For those that want to learn the Finnish kantele there are in-struments available for use. Evenings will include concerts and
dances by faculty and students that are also open to the public. Classes for the non-musician include workshops to make-your-own five-string or 10 string kantele or piccolo kantele, Finnish tango and folk dancing instruc-tion, hands-on Finnish food arts and weaving classes, lectures, story-telling and Finnish language classes, also new this year. Call 906-482-1413 or visit www.finlan-dia.edu/music-camp for information about Music Camp tuition, housing, and dining. At the website you can also get detailed descriptions about the classes, the instructors and the class schedule. An early registration discount is offered un-til June 15.
