Josée Vachon will bring her musical entertainment and cultural performance to the stage at the Riverfront-Franco Center in Lewiston on Sunday, March 5th at 1pm.
Through her music, she will share her Franco American joie de vivre – the joy of her life as a Franco American. Born in Quebec and raised in Maine, Vachon has been sharing her upbringing in Franco’s America for over 20 years through traditional and contemporary folk songs from Quebec and Acadia, as well as her own writing.
While she often entertained at family gatherings, she began singing publicly with the support of the University of Maine’s Franco-American Center, where she discovered others with an equally rich tradition. She quickly gained recognition as Franco’s American voice through her debut performances at state festivals and school and parish galas in Lewiston and Madawaska, Maine. She has a dozen solo records and continues to perform and record music that best represents her love of Franco’s American culture.
Doors and cash bar open at noon. Advance tickets are $20 for Tier 1 seats and $15 for Tier 2 seats. On the day of the show, tickets are $25 for a first-class seat and $20 for a second-class seat.
Tickets can be purchased online at francocenter.org/shows, by calling 207-689-2000, or in person at our Box Office every Tuesday and Wednesday between 10:00 am and 1:00 pm. Riverfront – Franco Center is located in the former St. Mary’s Church at 46 Cedar Street in Lewiston. There is a parking lot in the factory.
