Va-et-vient is pleased to be invited to perform again on beautiful Isle La Motte on northern Lake Champlain.   The Isle La Motte Preservation Trust, which owns and manages two nature and fossil preserves on Isle La Motte, has renovated an old dairy barn (now the "Conservation Barn") on the 83 acre Goodsell Ridge Preserve, and many arts events are moving from Fisk Farm to the preserve.   The acoustics of the renovated barn will contribute to an unforgettable evening.
