SUMMARY:Architectural Elegy: A Mourning Ritual for Lost Spaces
DESCRIPTION:In response to The Disappointed Tourist\, Ellen Harvey’s on-going project of painting lost places\, Dannielle Tegeder of Hilma’s Ghost will lead a meditative ceremony with Ellen Harvey honoring demolished and disappearing buildings through collective remembrance. Participants will create ephemeral memorials by drawing or writing about a place they miss and sharing brief stories of places that shaped their lives. Drawing inspiration from Harvey’s practice of preserving the overlooked\, participants will honor our forgotten spaces through a knotting ritual creating a temporary community to support each other in our grief. The ritual closes with a moment of silence for the places and structures that once held our histories. \nDuration: 60 minutes | All materials provided | Participants are invited to dress in mourning or black (not required) | All are welcome

SUMMARY:Agatha Christie's The Murder of Roger Ackroyd
DESCRIPTION:July 14 – August 1 – A masterfully twisted tale of deception and suspense.  A murder. A mansion. A mysterious cast of suspects. And only one man  can uncover the truth: Hercule Poirot. Agatha Christie’s The Murder of Roger Ackroyd is more than just a mystery—it’s the gold standard of the genre\, widely hailed as “the greatest whodunnit ever written.” In this new adaptation by Mark Shanahan\, Dame Agatha’s twistiest tale is brought to the stage with all its cunning\, charm\, and chilling suspense.

SUMMARY:Surfing for Daisy – FREE CONCERT
DESCRIPTION:Surfing for Daisy started on a porch in Asbury Park\, NJ between new and old friends. Their sound is rooted in Alternative Folk Rock with hints of Psychedelia\, but truly holds no bounds. The band has quickly caught fire\, Playing the Sea. Hear. Now festival in September of 2025 in front of thousands. The momentum continued when they sold out The Stone Pony in November for the release of their brand new single “Psychic\,” the first glimpse of their much anticipated sophomore album.
