It’s festive. It’s nostalgic. It’s tradition. And this year it’s set for June 30-July 2nd. From start to finish, Ellicottville’s Summer Music Festival is an experience that keeps families coming back year after year. Why? Let’s break it down…

Everyone likes to get out, right? Even more so now that the weather has turned sunny and warm. And everyone likes to support a good cause… so what about doing both at the same time?

“When we’re younger, it can be hard for us to see our parents as real people and not just stoic ‘Mom and Dad’.” It’s this very idea that “Three Days of Rain,” the Olean Theatre Workshop’s upcoming play, explores.
