The April version of the Grassroots Festival of Music and Dance (there’s another one in October) takes places Thursday through Sunday on the rolling hills of Chatham County, about a 30-minute drive southwest of Chapel Hill. Dozens and dozens of live acts will perform, and you’ll also find art, dance, food, workshops, parades, kids’ activities, camping ... well, it’s a long list.

You can go for a day or buy a weekend pass.

All the goods are at shakorihillsgrassroots.org.
