Four Winds Farm

A&nbsp;Cèilidh&nbsp;(pronounced&nbsp;KAY-lee) is a traditional Scottish social gathering full of lively music, dancing, and fun—think of it like a wedding reception without the formalities! You don’t need to be Scottish or know the steps ahead of time—just wear some plaid, bring your energy, and be ready to laugh. The dances are easy to learn, and everyone joins in, whether you’re an expert or have never danced a day in your life. Expect traditional Scottish tunes, group dances (often with a caller guiding the steps), and a welcoming, party-like atmosphere. It’s all about community, connection, and having a great time—no kilts or experience required. The night runs from 7–10pm, with music, dancing, and plenty of good cheer (and maybe a dram or two of whisky). So if you're up for a night of movement, music, and memorable shenanigans—this Cèilidh is calling your name! <a href="https://eventvesta.com/events/171644/t/tickets" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">View Tickets &amp; More Info</a>

Art Lit Lab

Staged reading of a standout 1924 psycho-melodrama from a forgotten American playwright

Jeff is a labor organizer and philosophy bro.

Madeline is a sassy diner waitress in Nowhere, Washington State.

They meet. Fall in love. Get married.

Madeline begs Jeff not to go to Butte, Montana with the union.

Jeff goes to Butte.

Madeline goes bad.

It's a melodramatic car crash of jealousy, revenge, retribution, talking magpies, and exile in the Yukon from there, complete with cleansing fire.

Once a Broadway standout which became the centerpiece of star Lillian Foster's stage career, not presented to public audiences since 1929.

Until now.

Retrieved (with a lot of help) from the Don Mullally archives and presented as a staged reading by Falconbridge Players this December.

Free and open to the public.
