The long-awaited return of beloved songwriter and roots music master, artist Rita Hosking together with her husband Sean Feder to the Silver City Schoolhouse takes place on Saturday, April 5 at 7 PM.In a wavy world where we often struggle to swim, singer-songwriter Rita Hosking paddles up and canoes us through black holes, sinks of dirty dishes, demo-derbies, and wildfires until we’re safe at shore. She’s got the spirit, and she knows how to reach ours through her grace, heart, chops, and spunk. With award-winning music spanning 9 albums and 20 years of touring, this country-folk troubadour is a heavy hitter in the west coast songwriting scene.

Rita is one of the great voices in American songwriting today. Her performances are mesmerizing and poignant. She has a way of reaching directly into the hearts of her audience with songs that tell fascinating stories. Accompanied be Sean Feder on Dobro, banjo and harmony vocals, their show is lively and their musicianship world class.“Timeless, unhurried elegance,” – Acoustic Magazine.“Razor-sharp songs and great live performances,” – The Daily Mirror+++The Silver City Schoolhouse is a historic one-room schoolhouse. It functioned as a school from 1868-1958. It opened during the Gold Rush when several thousand people lived in Silver City. After it closed in 1958 it became the firehouse and community center. The building burned in 2004 and was rebuilt over the next several years, using as much original material as could be salvaged from the fire. The Silver City Volunteer Fire Department got their own firehouse building and today the Schoolhouse functions once again as a community center, next to the beautiful Silver City Park. The building is used for community meetings, town events, parties, art shows, classes, community art projects, coffee houses, lectures, book readings and signings and much more. It also boasts a small but beautiful library.The Silver City Preservation Society (SCPS), a 501c3 nonprofit was recently formed to manage the Schoolhouse building and develop community programs and art and culture programming. Proceeds from the bar and bake sale benefit the SCPS.
