Official summer might be over, but fun at the BIC Center rolls on…
Labor Day may mark the end of “official” summer, but we’ll have warm weather on the island well in October. And you Community Center has plenty of events planned to make your time on the island fun.
On September 21st, Kennedy’s Kitchen will be here. Kennedy’s Kitchen is all things Irish-from pub songs and sing-a-longs, stories, recitation, to ripping dance tunes; from pounding on the tables to crying in your beer. Its voices raised in song, rich harmonies, fiddle, flute, whistle, mandolin, tenor banjo, bouzouki, guitar, and bass . . . when they are being serious; and every now and again, a kazoo or two. They sing and play from the deep tradition while also composing our own tunes, songs, and recitations. You can view it as a perfect wrap-up to a tenth anniversary summer season of music at the BIC Center–or the kick-off to a great off-season of fun for those who know that the Emerald Isle is gorgeous in the fall, winter and spring. The show is at 8:00 p.m. on September 21st. Tickets are $25 and on sale now at the BIC Center front desk.
Movies continue every Saturday in the Robert Gillespie Memorial Theater here at the BIC Center. There’s always a family friendly show at 3 and a feature at 7. On September 8th the afternoon show is A wrinkle in Time from Disney. It’s a romp through space and time that the whole family will enjoy. At 7, our feature film is Tag. Based on a true story, it’s about a decades long game of tag played for two months each year by a group of life-long friends. It’s a comedy for grown ups. Movies continue throughout the fall, winter and spring. Check back her
Every week at the BIC Center on Tuesdays and Fridays at 10 you can participate in the Arthritis Foundation Exercise Program. And on Thursdays you can stop by to play board or card games with friends old and new. Games Galore is from 1 to 4.
Also coming up on October 6th is the annual Bite of Beaver Craft Show and Sale here at the BIC Center. If you’d like to have a table, now’s the time to sign up. Stop by the BIC Center Front Desk or call 448-2022 for more info.
