Founded in 1985 by violist Lila Brown and violinist Judith Eissenberg, the festival features a summer concert series at the historic (Hubbard Hall ) in Cambridge, New York; free children's workshops at area libraries and open rehearsals at the Brown Farm in Salem, New York – birthplace of Music from Salem.
