"Raising Maine"
Great event for families! Wednesday night is "Family Night" at O'Naturals -- buy any adult meal and get a kid's meal FREE! We're pleased to offer you live entertainment once a month that the whole family will love! Hope Hoffman has been a music teacher and professional violinist/fiddler in Maine since 2001, providing imaginative charm and good old-fashioned fun for downtown festivals, restaurants, weddings, and community gatherings.
Her live, acoustic CD features her original New England dance tunes and the traditional Maine fiddle music which inspires them. In her warm and personable performances, Hope shares Maine’s musical heritage of Irish, Scottish, French Canadian, Welsh and Scandinavian tunes.
Hope also plays for contra dances and leads sessions for children's museums and festivals featuring live fiddle music, creative movement and folk dance.
