First Friday: Duo Laroo/Byrd
New Britain Museum of American Art
Sep. 4, 2015, 05:30 pm
World-renowned trumpeter Saskia Laroo and international pianist/vocalist Warren Byrd together create a smorgasbord of music for a wide palette of occasions from the grand gala-fest to the intimate hang. Whether performing dance classics, the American songbook, hot afro-Latin grooves, or their own catchy, poignant originals this unique two can manifest as a soothing background pad, a party-rousing tandem, or a grand showpiece. Laroo and Byrd can unleash their potent charm anywhere anytime. At an opportune request, Saskia and Warren can transmute from state of the art duo into full band.
TASTINGS: Savor Cookies, Roger’s Orchards, and Shebeen Brewing

Stock The Bar Candles by Amy Yungk
https://www.etsy.com/shop/stockthebarcandles#
Stock the Bar Candles is taking recycling to a new level. We upcycle empty liquor, wine and beer bottles, and give them a new life in the form of a unique soy candle. Each bottle is hand cut, hand sanded and hand poured in small batches to ensure the best quality and scent in our candles. We believe in using the best locally sourced ingredients available and partner with local businesses to collect their empty glass bottles in West Hartford and surrounding areas.
Whether it is a custom scent or a wholesale order, we are happy to work with you to create a memorable gift and light up a smile with a Stock the Bar candle.
