It’s that time again, our annual Memorial Day Picnic here at The Men’s Home. We do it on Memorial Day, Monday, May 30th, from 2:30-5:30PM. It’s burgers, dogs, and whatever else we can think of, along with sides and sweets.
Folks usually bring other dishes that they like (certainly not required), so we enjoy a wide variety of things to eat. It’s an informal day of food and fellowship, bring the families and dogs too!
Dawn Avery In Concert
Saturday, February 27th
8:00-9:00 EST
Virtual concert on ZOOM. Tickets available through Eventbrite. Due to security concerns, the Zoom ID and password will be emailed to attendees approximately one day to the event.
Grammy-nominated world musician, Dawn Avery explores the relationship between music and spirituality, having been privileged to work with luminaries Luciana Pavarotti, Sting, Reza Derakshani, John Cage, the Dalai Lama, Ron Young, Baba Catalkaya and Tawen’te:se, among others. Honoring both the community and its space as sacred, she fosters intercultural and spiritual freedom by creating multi-media concert ceremonies and directing a world music program and festival. Dawn shares contemporary soundscapes often referred to as mystic pop that contain spiritual, pop and classical elements reflecting a deep devotion rooted in her Native American heritage and Sufi experience.
She has led meditation and music workshops and concerts at the Omega Institute for Holistic Studies, Esalen Institute, Open Center, Joe’s Pub at the Public Theatre and the Kennedy Center. Dawn looks for opportunities to make a positive difference through art and community. Her personable style engages audiences around the world.
The dog days of summer are nearly waning, which means it’s almost time for our annual Labor Day Picnic here at The Men’s Home.
On Monday, September 5th, we’ll be grilling up burgers and dogs, and putting out sides and desserts. Some folks bring things that they like too, so it’s usually a big spread of goodness. We’ll start at about 2:30 PM, and go until 5:30 PM:
- 2:30 PM – Hello, talk, eat
- 3:30 PM – Talk, eat
- 4:30 PM – Still talking and eating
- 5:30 PM – We say thanks and goodbye, give you your dishes back
We hope you can join us on Labor Day!
