Governor Scott has proclaimed November to be ‘Local Music Month,’ and for some very good reasons! Here’s the proclamation:

WHEREAS the people of Vermont are diverse and deeply talented as a creative community; and

WHEREAS Vermont’s original music is a vital vehicle of our humanity, carrying our stories, emotions and hopes to each other and to future generations; and

WHEREAS the musical artists and industries of Vermont build community and our economy; and

WHEREAS the enrichment and benefits that music and its industries provide to Vermonters are a treasured part of the Vermont experience and worthy of celebration.

NOW THEREFORE I, Philip B. Scott, Governor, hereby proclaim November 2020 as

LOCAL MUSIC MONTH

in Vermont.

Given under my hand and the Great Seal of the State of Vermont on this 23rd day of October, A.D. 2020.
