Music + Community
Posted by: Alissa Ampezzan
This past weekend many of us Qsters attended the 33rd annual Ann Arbor Folk Festival, a two-day collection of innovative local and national artists. The Ark celebrates its 45th year of music and community in 2010 and what better way to mark the milestone than by selling out two nights at Hill Auditorium. Headliners were Iron and Wine, Ben Gibbard (Death Cab for Cutie) & Jay Farrar (Sunvolt), Rosanne Cash, and Richie Havens. Stand-out performances came from Hoots & Hellmouth and local duo Nervous But Excited.
As Design Sponsor for the last seven years, Q designs the poster, tshirts, programs, etc. This year, we wanted to commemorate the 33rd Folk Festival and The Ark’s 45th year in a special way, so we talked to the gang at VGKids in Ypsi and made some super cool Q LP “flair.”
Q is just proud to be a part of such an historic Ann Arbor cultural hub. Can’t wait ‘til next year…

I can’t believe how amazing Death Cab for Cutie keeps getting every year. They really can perform and always put on a great show with their concert ukeleles.
