The Englewood Music Festival was first held in March 2009. This event is a major fund raiser for The Englewood Youth Foundation which is the 501c3 arm of the The Rotary Club of Englewood. Last year the event moved to it's current location, Paul Morris Park at 1401 South River Road in Englewood, FL 34223. This year the show will be extended to Friday March 9th and Saturday March 10th, 2012 and will showcase a variety of musical talent playing continuously both days.
The event was named the Englewood Music Festival with the intention to help bring an identity to the community and help establish the Englewood /Cape Haze area as a focal point for music and entertainment in the area by the promoter Jack Gray of Gray Matter Enterprises which produces the festival. The event has been well received by the media and it has attracted visitors from the surrounding metropolitan areas, as well as, throughout the US for a weekend of music, food, and fun.
So far, it has featured some of the most talented local, regional, and national acts, including Jimi Jamison of Survivor Greg Billings of Stranger, and Glenn Leonard of The Temptations. This year, by popular demand, Glenn Leonard will return to perform his Hitsville Live Motown Tribute. Look for the complete lineup to be announced soon!
This is a family friendly event. Kids 12 & under get free admission to the festival, but must be accompanied by an adult at all times.

Playful Pallett
Welcome! My name is Joyce Wolff and here you can get more information on me and my art. As an artist I am always looking to be a part of a new and exciting project. I provide creative, reliable and timely service with professionalism and care.
I come from a long line of artists. My father and brother are both artists. My father would sit us down as youngsters and teach us how to color properly, shade, highlight, etc. I have always enjoyed working with my hands and majored in art through school. I taught ballet, tap, jazz and ballroom dancing for most of my adult life.
After my daughter was born I picked up the paint brush and started painting again. First a mural then a piece of furniture and then my neighbors house. I went back to school to learn faux finishing and study trompe l’oeil, which means to fool the eye. You will see some of that work in my portfolio. I went to my first face painting convention in Orlando Florida last year and have since become an award winning face painter. I am looking forward to being part of this year's Englewood Music Festival!
