Beardfest: The Ten-Year Anniversary
A three-day celebration of creative expression June 16-18 at Paradise Lakes Campground in Hammonton, NJ
Beardfest 2021 (Mini Beard)
Tamed Flame Productions
Beardfest is a three-day celebration of creative expression that strives to enliven the artist in everyone. Beardfest offers attendees the opportunity to unplug in South Jersey’s beautiful Pinelands Preserve while enjoying music that spans an incredibly wide range of genres; but their definition of entertainment goes far beyond the spectator/performer dichotomy. At Beardfest, attendees have the opportunity to collaborate on large scale murals throughout the campgrounds, practice yoga, participate in a variety of collaborative music making activities, and share ideas & stories in curated workshops.
Beardfest's 10th anniversary lineup is chock-full of amazing talent this year with local, regional, and national acts which will surely draw the crowds. First curated in 2012 by local jam-prog masters, Out of The Beardspace, Beardfest will be hosting headliners Dopapod, Cabinet, and Too Many Zooz joined by The Main Squeeze, Taylor McFerrin & Marcus Gilmore, Dogs In A Pile, Consider The Source, Beeswax, Bent Knee, Blaq Dynamite, Mikaela Davis, Sam Greenfield, Snacktime Brass Band, Gnarbot, Solar Circuit, Darlingtyn, Trap Rabbit, a special appearance by the Funk N Bowl All-stars and many more.
Beardfest will also host a slew of events during the three-day festival including 40+ various workshops and with select art & food vendors on-site who will be camped out with you all weekend. Once again on-site will be team ROMPUS, who create large-scale improvisational paintings inspired by surrounding people and sounds, playing with light, shadow, dance, and color to create vibrant, theatrical art. As they paint, their bodies are hidden from the audience but also backlit, so their shadows become part of their work. They pay homage to the natural world with imagery from cellular and galactic structures, animals, plants and life cycles. ROMPUS is also dedicated to creating spontaneous, collaborative spaces all around the festival grounds for everybody to paint. This year the ROMPUS team will take live art at Beardfest to a new level with scrims enveloping the stage, an expanded community painting area, and some surprise tricks they have hidden up their sleeves. Joining the festivities as usual this year will be Tamed Flame Productions with an troupe of talented fire spinners and performers.
