Holiday season is upon us! Below are some of our upcoming NAS luncheon programs:
Monday, December 6th
Nederland author, pianist and Victory Gardens co-director Jim McVey, will be setting the Holiday mood with some piano tunes, followed by readings from his new book, Loon Rangers, October 2021, Saddle Road Press. This poignant book of love, loons and longing is a perfect fit for mountain readers. Nourishment for the mind and body at its finest!

Today will feature LIVE music from The Strangebyrds, known to many of us as the beloved Rollinsville singer-songwriter duo Cari Minor and Ray Smith. They will liven things up with music from their newest album, followed by a few classic Holiday tunes, done in their inimitable “Blue Collar” folk style. This presentation is being co-hosted by the amazing Nederland Community Library – big thank you to them!
