Mountain Jams is on this weekend Sep 7 with Dakota Blonde. FREE from 2-3.30 at Library Stage Park in Georgetown Colorado.
Dakota Blonde is one of the most unique acoustic sounds around! Their combination of original tunes and carefully selected covers, along with their endearing stage presence and humor is out of this world!
Their musical sound is hard to classify, but best put, they are acoustic folk, part bluegrass, part acoustic rock, part singer/songwriter, and sometimes even Celtic! They are a unique blend of heart, authenticity and contagious spirit! Their acoustic sound is like no other, with such tightly blended harmonies that you would swear they were born to sing together!
You just have to experience a Dakota Blonde show to know what you’ve been missing!

Come to the Old School (formerly the Georgetown Heritage Center) to enjoy great art that was painted ‘en plein air,” or on the spot in open air for the rest of us. These vetted artists spent two days creating works in differing media in eclectic styles to bring wonderful paintings of the Georgetown Silver Plume Historic Landmark District for us to enjoy. We only have a week left for these great works. Enjoy the art, see the Old School, and you might even find something for your home or a friend’s house.

Just a reminder… Heritage Hops is on its way!

Clear Creek Library District Presents Heritage Hops!

Georgetown is filled with hops plants left by our 19th-century breweries. Until the halt, in 2020, it has been a tradition for one of the Georgetown local breweries to create a beer from those hops to be presented on an evening at the Old School. We are back again, and the beer is ready to sample. Please join us for a tasting of a brew of Heritage Hops from Georgetown.
Proceeds will go towards funding our library expansion.
Not a beer drinker? You can still donate to our cause! Tickets on Eventbrite: https://www.eventbrite.com/e/heritage-hops-at-the-old-school-in-georgetown-tickets-720497215567?aff=erelexpmlt
