Re-Bop rocks out Barre's ReStore at Fall Family Music Festival

Re-Bop and ReSOURCE partner up to create performance space

ReSOURCE does so much good already – turning throw-aways that would otherwise clutter up landfills into useful, saleable items through a work training program – the Vermont non-profit organization is now giving the central Vermont community a place to play, as well. With the help of Re-Bop Records and its creative director Diana Winn, ReSOURCE is incorporating a performance space into its renovations of a historic Barre granite shed. Much of the work will be completed this summer on the one-of-a-kind venue utilizing the overhead electric crane system.
