We are SO excited for our Membership Thank You Party featuring "80 Proof Alice" that is just over two weeks away! Please find all the details at the event page above.

We are over the moon to get to bring 80 Proof Alice to Lindsborg for this special evening. Bluegrass "straight outta Kansas"
Reigning from Hays, Kansas, 80 Proof Alice is a high-energy trio performing all types of music blended into a bluegrass style. Tyson Lesage brings a dynamic style to the group with his lively Flatpicking, coupled with the tasty banjo stylings of the 2022 Kansas State Banjo champion, Jason Riegel. Aimee Riegel rounds out the group with steady bass beats, soulful vocals and harmonies.

They just released their new single today! Check it out. And then make plans to come see them in October 5th.

Eliza Polly Elizabeth Polly is traditionally the name of a beloved hospital matron at Fort Hays, Kansas, an "angel of mercy" during the cholera outbreak of 1867 who also died of the disease. It is said that her spirit still walks Sentinel Hill, carrying a blue lantern, looking for soldiers to comfort.

Called "Eyes Open," the Nyquists and their film team have a Kickstarter to raise the funds they need to get their film produced. If you'd like to support them, follow the link below!

We're so appreciative of our members!! Part of your membership fee goes to help pay for projects like the Children's Art in the Smoky Valley - an everchanging gallery of artwork by local students from Soderstrom Elementary School, Lindsborg Child Development Center, and the Marquette Learning Center. This is a new project we started this past fall as a way to showcase the younger generation's creativity...and encourage everyone to stop and get some ice cream while they're at it. ;)

Big thanks to Roxie Lambert, The Courtyard Gallery, Brian Freeman and his crew, Shirley Malm, Kathy Peterson, and Indigo M'ood for their collaborative spirits!
