🎉 Announcing the Craftsmen’s Guild Summer Porch Party Series 🎟 Tickets $20! Limited seating – Act Fast!
Normally, we’d be welcoming Snappy Sync fireflies this month. This year, we are giving them a chance to have some quiet time to start the recovery process that only Mother Nature can provide. But there are still opportunities to gather for fun evenings on our fabulous back porch!
Come join us at the Waller Craft Center for live music, live craft demonstrations, food and libations. At our first porch party, we’ll learn about the plight of the Synchronous Fireflies that we have grown so fond of over the years. Sparks will fly when members of the Mississippi Forge Council bang on some hot metal. Bill Ellison will entertain us with music on the patio as we enjoy Pig and Pint barbecue paired with cold beer, wine, or a Cathead lemonade cocktail.
The Summer Porch Party Series is made possible thanks to grant funding by Explore Ridgeland and the Mississippi Arts Commission.
