Songwriters and musicians with deep roots in the Pine Barrens performed at Waretown’s Albert Music Hall on Saturday, April 26, in celebration of the Pinelands Cultural Society’s 50th anniversary.

The PCS, which runs Albert Hall, is a nonprofit volunteer organization dedicated to preserving Pinelands heritage and passing down the musical and cultural traditions started in the 1950s by brothers Joe and George Albert, in their Home Place cabin in the woods of Waretown.
