Antlers & Acorns, the Lodge, the Songwriters Festival, and the Television Show, are named for the things left behind. The deer leave antlers, the oaks

acorns, and songwriters, musicians, and authors leave art; songs for

celebrations, for grief, to fall in love, to mourn a love lost. We don’t believe

that music and literature are luxuries, but rather an essential part of life, a necessity, a mirror for what is, and a map to what can be.
