Jenn returns for her second year to the Fairport Music Festival! In addition to the thirty plus bands that provide non-stop entertainment for this one-day. two-night show, the event includes children’s activities, games, crafts, and festival foods provided by many area food trucks and vendors. There is even a section for not-for-profit agencies to advertise their mission presence in the community. 

Now approaching its 15th year of operations, the Festival has grown into a local and regional favorite for thousands to celebrate the event and the community’s great fortune in having a stand-alone Children’s Hospital in the greater Rochester Area. 

To date, the Fairport Music Festival has generated over $1.53 Million to-date, over $230k in 2018, to non-budgeted GCH needs, and committed $750,000 to the building project of a pediatric cardiac surgery suite in the newly built and still growing hospital.

Here is a listing of some of the FMF efforts to date:

• PEDIATRIC TREATMENT CENTER PLAYROOM - $125,000

• GIRAFFE OMNIBEDS (2) - $80,000
