Brush and Lens Fusion: A Deep Creek Art Show

Deep Creek Photographer Jessica Fike and Garrett County Native & Artist Collen DuBose invite you to a gallery show displaying a collection of painted-on photos that represent a collaborative effort by the two. Jessica & Collen consider this show a type of artistic journey because they want you to journey around the room from piece to piece, season to season. The pieces start at the lens and end at the brush, so as you travel, get close and notice the details, colors, and textures of the canvases. All canvases in the collection are of Deep Creek + Garrett County, MD scenes, will be for sale, and are meant to be standout pieces in a room. The four seasons will be visible and the colors of the seasons will be highlighted. Jessica and Collen are hosting the event with their friend, local interior designer and MC Michael Fratz. A portion of all proceeds from the sales of artworks will benefit Hospice of Garrett County. For more information about the event, please email jessica@jessicafikephotography.com and collendubose@gmail.com.

Honi-Honi Bar 19745 Garrett Hwy, Oakland, Maryland, United States

Based out of State College, PA, this is a high energy 4 piece pop punk/alt rock cover band delivering big sounds with huge songs. It’s kind of like that teen movie from the early 2000s where the soundtrack is Fall Out Boy, Blink 182 and Good Charlotte. If it had energy and was on the radio anywhere between the 90’s and 2000’s they probably play it.

The Mountain Laurel Garden Club is hosting a native plant sale on Saturday, August 3, 11:00 AM – 1:00 PM, at Sang Run State Park, 3735 Sang Run Rd., McHenry. There are 23 species of native plants, with a total of over 750 plants for sale. Notable plants include Sweet Black-eyed Susan (taller and bushier than traditional Black-eyed Susan with hundreds of blooms for weeks), two varieties of Aster and Joe Pye Weed, Bee Balm, Cardinal Flower, Great Blue Lobelia, Boneset, Coreopsis, and three varieties of native Milkweed. The sale also includes two plants that deer do not like: Mountain Mint and Eastern Bluestar. The club recommends planting the native plants in groups of three or five for the best show of blooms to attract pollinators. Proceeds from the plant sale will be used by MLGC for the continued beautification of our communities and to encourage gardening and sound conservation practices through club activities and programs, including educational programs at Sang Run State Park. The club offers an annual $1000 scholarship through the Garrett College Foundation and partners with local organizations in support of youth environmental education and civic beautification.

Breaking Winds Bassoon Quartet at Penn Alps

Spruce Forest Chapel Grantsville, MD, United States

Music at Penn Alps is pleased to present the Breaking Winds Bassoon Quartet. The concert will be at the handicap-accessible Village Chapel in the Spruce Forest Village in Grantsville, MD, on August 3 at 7:00 PM. Tickets are available for $20 at the door, in the gift shop at Penn Alps Restaurant, or online at https://www.musicatpennalps.org/tickets. The Breaking Winds Bassoon Quartet may be history’s most ambitious cover band. Four women wielding bassoons (with help from some kazoos, a melodica, and whatever else they found nearby), aim to explore the creative frontier and share smiles along the way. By blending varied musical genres and performance styles with pop culture, the quartet demonstrates that music and laughter are universal languages. The group -- consisting of Brittany Harrington-Smith, Yuki Katayama, Nellie Sommer, and Lauren Yu Ziemba -- was formed in 2008 as students at the Eastman School of Music (USA). After a YouTube video of their Lady Gaga Saga went viral in 2011, they developed a global fan base. They have since performed as soloists with the Yale Concert Band, West Point Band, Southern Methodist University Wind Ensemble, and Eastman Wind Ensemble (among others), and have been invited artists of the International Double […]
