Harpers Hall & culinary society

Harpers Hall makes its home in the San Francisco South Bay Area and Central California Coast. Our purpose is to promote an appreciation of the folk harp, to cultivate its living musical tradition, and to preserve the fun and magic of the harp for members and for the general public. To that end, we hold numerous events throughout the year, from harp jams to house concerts, festival performances to yearly weekend retreats. Journey through Harpers Hall to discover an enchanting world of harpers and learn their songs and their stories. Here you will meet many of the revelers, see the various lands they travel to, and find out how to join.

Harpers Hall Ensemble Performing in Pescadero, CA

Every year since our beginning (around 1994), we have held our annual “Retreat from the World” in Pescadero. During our many visits we have become friends with the people who run South Coast Children’s Services. This year, during our retreat, we'll be giving a concert at the Pescadero Community Church in Pescadero as a benefit for this wonderful organization. For more information about them, visit their website at http://www.southcoastchildren.org/.

The Harpers Hall Ensemble The Harpers Hall ensemble consists of 15 – 25 harpers playing together on all sizes and makes of folk harps. Harpers Hall performances are magical occasions, combining beautiful harp music with lively dialogue on the folk harp and its rich history. Offstage, Harpers Hall members are always eager to demonstrate their instruments and to share information. Their performances commonly inspire audience members to take up the harp themselves!

Solo harpitsts will be featured as well during this concert, including, Debra Knodel, Jerry Bauer, Verlene Schermer and more!
