Sunday’s best bets at Treefort Music Fest

The Statesman’s Michael Deeds and Dana Oland help you close out Treefort.

Swan song: Boise will say goodbye to Youth Lagoon — aka local indie musician Trevor Powers’ band. This will be the final American performance for the critically acclaimed act, says Powers, who is retiring the project. Check it out at 8:30 p.m. on the Main Stage at 12th and Grove streets.

Last call: Local breweries and eateries are offering delicious tastes for $2.50 at the Alefort/Foodfort tent at 12th and Grove streets. Entry is free. Try pairing Boise Brewing’s Treez Nuts, a hazelnut porter, with a hazelnut ice cream sandwich cookie from Bittercreek Alehouse. They were made from the same batch of hazelnuts. Mmmm. Alefort: noon to 7 p.m.; Foodfort 1 to 5 p.m. (Some Foodfort items cost $5.)

Easter fun: The festival will open its main stage area for the Kidfort Easter Egg Hunt from 9 a.m. to noon. Keep your eyes open for eggs that contain “golden tickets” and are redeemable for cool prizes. It’s free and open to the public.

Storyfort: Nurse your hangover at “Mimosa Poetry Sunday” featuring Kerri Webster, Adrien Kien and Janet Holmes at noon at The Linen Building, 1402 W. Grove St. Flannery O’Connor Award-winner Anne Panning will read from her latest fiction work at 2 p.m.
