A  Series of Musical Curiosities

Joe Marchio can’t help but put together the most interesting ideas.  Some people wondered how music and architecture affected each other;  now they know that some types of buildings were perfect for polyphony, and produced a venue for people to streamline their musical creations.   Bach wrote about the street drug of his day:  coffee.    Who would of ever thunk it?

Joan Hill
Owner, Host, & Director

 In 2008, the seed of Artful Journeys was planted in her brain, when Joan brought together all of her life's passions, her love of music, an affinity for the beautiful things in life, and an ability to organize events to give birth to Artful Journeys, a program of art education trips for the soul.

Joan was born and raised in the apple country of the Hudson River Valley in New York; her father was a gentle, very tolerant, educated land surveyor, and her mother was the efficient business administrator and home engineer. The youngest of four children, Joan was encouraged to pursue anything she wanted, but also to do her best. Sometimes that was very difficult, especially succeeding three very accomplished siblings.
