Piano by Nature: Jeremiah McLane & Friends
June 7 @ 1:30 pm – 5:00 pm
On June 7th Piano by Nature is having a super special fundraiser with all of the ‘fun’ you might expect from our past events—and more. This year we are bringing back acclaimed Vermont pianist/accordionist Jeremiah McLane in a thrilling new setting—namely the outside porch of the Hand House! And he will be joined by his equally-distinguished musical partners Timothy Cummings on pipes and whistles, and McKinley James on cello.
Amidst the chirping birds and swaying trees they will present a joyful exploration of yearning ballads, ancient sailor songs, and buoyant and lighthearted folk dances on the gorgeous Hand House lawn surrounded by an abundance of natural beauty. This in itself would be a wonderful experience, and in addition PBN will be adding a giant tent with mouth-watering Garden-Party fare from Plattsburgh’s Fork and Knife Catering, specially-mixed non-alcoholic cocktails (and tea, of course) so you can bring the whole family, stunning flower arrangements by Willsboro’s Sarah White to be raffled off, prizes for best hats, special games for children, and to top things off, a gorgeous and delicious accordion-shaped cake from Sassy Cakes by Sue in Delmar, NY. This is a one-time PBN event not to be missed, so make your reservations today for the kick-off party of the summer!
Sunday, June 7th Garden Tea Party Fundraiser
The Garden Party will begin at 1:30 p.m. and the music will start at 3 p.m. Bring your own comfy chairs and picnic blankets to sit and enjoy the concert under the tent and we will provide the rest. Tickets are $100 per adult and $15 for children, and all proceeds go to supporting our upcoming 19th and 20th season anniversary celebration concerts (to be announced soon). Make your reservations at pianobynature@gmail.com or call 518.962.8899 and leave a message for Rose.
Saturday, June 6th, 7PM Indoor Concert
And for those who prefer our more ‘traditional’ setting, we will be offering our regular indoor concert on Saturday night, June 6th at 7p.m. Tickets for this date are $20 per adult, and $5 for 15-and-under.
