SUMMARY:Yacht Lobsters
DESCRIPTION:Back by popular demand\, Yacht Lobsters returns to bring the smooth-sailing sounds of 1970s–80s soft rock to the stage once again. This New York City–based band captures the golden era of Steely Dan\, the Doobie Brothers\, Hall & Oates\, Toto and more with lush vocals\, tight grooves and that unmistakable Yacht Rock glow. \nBlending silky harmonies with a powerhouse horn section and just the right touch of funk and improvisation\, Yacht Lobsters delivers a laid-back\, feel-good night that invites you to sing along\, sway and settle into the breeze. So dust off your captain’s hat\, grab a tropical drink and come cruise with us.

SUMMARY:Broom Workshop:  Kitchen Set (morning session)
DESCRIPTION:In this workshop you will use traditional broom-making techniques to make a three-piece kitchen set:  a Turkey Wing Whisk Broom\, a Pot Scrubber\, and a Cake Tester.  All of the items will be made with all natural broom corn\, your choice of string and either a piece of broom corn seed\, or a piece of red dyed broom corn for decoration to weave into the broom. By making three items\, you will learn to start a broom three times so that you have the knowledge and practice to try it on your own! \nThe Turkey Wing Whisk Broom dates back well over 200 years when all you had were grasses\, twigs and string to fasten a broom together. This broom will use a low-sugar content of sorghum for broom making and a variety of strong nylon string. Your Turkey Wing broom will be great for cleaning car mats\, small rugs\, craft tables\, work benches and more. They are very functional\, make wonderful gifts and are lovely to display. \nThe pot or veggie scrubber can be used to clean stubborn pots OR dirty vegetables.  The cake tester is an old-fashioned utensil with straws that you break off and insert into your cake to check for doneness. If it comes out clean\, it’s ready to eat! \nINSTRUCTOR:  Robin Ziegler \nREGISTRATION FEE: $65/$58 for HSV members; all materials included. Includes admission to the Village
