Introduction to crocheting for children. In this class students will learn how to: make basic crochet stitches, read patterns, and follow tutorials.  At the conclusion of the course participants will have a Show and Tell to display their crocheted item(s). Participants will need to bring a crochet hook between the sizes of G and J and a small tote for their crochet supplies. If they have special yarn they’d like to use they can bring that too, however, yarn will be provided. 

Your teachers for this program are members of the Warwick Valley High School Strings N’ Things Club. This club was established by Advisor Elissa Maynard The objective of the club is to use hand art to benefit the community. Their motto is “We Crochet & Knit for Community Service”. 

This class runs for 3 sessions on Sundays from 12:30 to 1:30 on these dates: April 23, May 7 and June 4.

For children in grades 3 to 8.

In addition to our regular LEGO Sunday event where you can drop in and use your imagination to build something with our LEGOs, today we'll be offering fast-paced, timed, LEGO building challenges.  During and after the event you'll be able to  show off and display what you've made.

"Engaging, multi-talented violinist Deni Bonet. Unlike most violinists, she is not nailed to the floor. And she doesn’t shy away from going head-to-head with the guitar player, having fun and breaking an erstwhile-stodgy image of the grand old instrument.” ~ Forbes Magazine

Join us for an afternoon of music featuring violinist/singer Deni Bonet and guitarist/singer Chris Flynn. Also a songwriter, Deni is a classically trained violinist who treats audiences of all ages to quirky, melodic, and fun folk rock music.

It's no secret that Deni Bonet can play a violin like nobody's business. Or that she writes memorable songs that make you want to listen again and again. For years, Deni has been honing her craft as a violinist, singer, songwriter and performer. Her style ranges from pop to roots-rock to new folk. Although classically trained, Deni quit the classical world because she hated having to wear black and sit still! She has a stellar resume, having performed and recorded with Cyndi Lauper, R.E.M., Sarah McLachlan and many others. Her previous appearances include four sold-out concerts at Carnegie Hall, NPR’s Mountain Stage, The Great Wall of China, the United Nations, and the White House for President Obama.

Chris Flynn is a guitarist and singer who has accompanied Rock and Roll Hall of Famers Ronnie Spector and Dennis Dunaway (Alice Cooper) along with Simon Kirke (Free, Bad Company), Chris Collingwood (Fountains of Wayne),  Garland Jeffreys, Willie Nile, and many others. He has performed at Carnegie Hall and Lincoln Center and served for many years as the musical director of the All Star Irish Rock Revue in New York City featuring Irish luminaries such as Cait O’Riordan (The Pogues), Joanie Madden (Cherish The Ladies), and raconteurs Alphie and Malachy McCourt. He has been performing and touring with Deni Bonet for the past four years.
