Roughing It: An Evening with Mark Twain
One night only!  Nationally known actor/historian Kurt Sutton brings America’s first star humorist to life on the City Center stage as a fundraiser for Elm Street.  A great evening of theater and music the entire family will enjoy. In his youth Mark Twain found himself adrift as a tenderfoot in the Wild West – working as a civil servant, gold prospector, and reporter -  trying his luck at anything and everything. This show is a hilarious account of his adventures in buffalo hunts, mining camps, and on the lecture circuit as told by the inimitable Mark Twain.

Saturday April 21st at 7:30pm.  Tickets are $11, 10 & 9 in advance online.  $14, 12, 11 at the door.   Held at City Center 8534 Main Street Woodstock

Music Together

Mar, 28th, 2012 10:00 AM to May, 30th, 2012 12:00 PM

Did you know that music is one of the best ways to learn for children birth to 6 years? Music Together is a well researched and developed program based on the premise that all children are musical and have the same innate ability to learn music as a language. Our goal is to nurture the children’s natural enthusiasm for music and movement. We sing songs, dance, do rhythmic chants and fun activities with balls, hula hoops, scarves, and more. We play lots of different instruments. The joy of parent/caregiver participation is the most important factor in fostering the love of music making in children; so come and make music with us! Tuition includes a beautifully illustrated songbook, parent education materials and 2 copies of an outstanding CD recording of the rich variety of music covered in class.

Cost: $160 ($75 for additional sibling over 8 months; 8 months & younger attend free with a registered sibling)
