Dark Skies - "Losing the Dark"
Screening and Discussion
Sunday, March 30th, 11:00 am

Light pollution is the human-made alteration of outdoor light levels from those occurring naturally. It disrupts wildlife, impacts human health, wastes money and energy, and blocks our view of the universe. The good news? We have the power to change it!

In collaboration with the Roaring Brook Lake Garden Club, we invite you to an enlightening presentation by Jill Eisenstein.

Rob Flax's Boom Chick Trio
Ragtime, Blues, and Songs of the ‘20s
Friday, April 5th, 7:30 pm

Equal parts hot swing, snarky songwriting, and lyrical storytelling, this energetic trio of virtuoso violin, guitar, and upright bass, with three-part harmony vocals, will transport you to a speakeasy in the back of a bar.

“Hotshot swing, crackerjack instrumentals, superb harmonies & hysterical stagecraft” —The Folk Project
