The Harvest of Hope Fest is pleased to announce the schedule lineup for their 2nd annual arts and music festival, taking place March 12th - 14th on the St. Johns County Fairgrounds in St. Augustine, FL. Attendees will be treated to three days of music featuring over 200 bands including Broken Social Scene, Anti-Flag, Billy Bragg, Dr. Dog, Dead Prez, Senses Fail, Man Man, Kid Sister, the 22-piece indie-rock marching band Mucca Pazza and the best in underground alternative, punk, indie, rock, and hip-hop.
In addition to a great music lineup the festival offers expanded camping options, carnival rides, games and more! New attractions this year include: a "beer garden" provided by Champion Brands, a solar powered stage within the Not For Profit world, a mechanical bull, and free shuttle rides to the beach and downtown St. Augustine. Also new for this year, the festival will debut a Saturday Kids Matinee hosted by Kimya Dawson of Moldy Peaches fame. The Kids Matinee will feature performances from musicians like Justin Sane from Anti-Flag, face painting, a magician, and a bounce house.
The Harvest of Hope Fest strives to connect communities and encourage global awareness through the power of music. By attending the Harvest of Hope Fest, music fans are directly showing their support for The Harvest of Hope Foundation with their voices and dollars.
All proceeds from the Harvest of Hope Fest will be donated to The Harvest of Hope Foundation - a non-profit organization that provides financial, educational and service oriented aid to migrant farm workers all over the country. As of last month, The Harvest of Hope Foundation has distributed over $790,000 to migrant and seasonal farmworkers and their families. The foundation's services include, but are not limited to: emergency healthcare assistance, housing and transportation assistance, educational grants and scholarships, monthly expenses, replacement clothing, and financial aid.
