Yankee Stadium from the (Organ) Bench
with Ed Alstrom
Tuesday, June 24 – 6:30 pm
Ed Alstrom is in his 22nd season as the Weekend Organist at Yankee Stadium. In this presentation, he will talk about that job, demonstrate how it gets done, and tell stories about his experiences at the Stadium. The program will fascinate Yankee fans and baseball fans in general who would like a ‘behind-the-scenes’ glance at an oft-overlooked part of the baseball experience. Please join us!
The Life & Style of Jackie Kennedy
Tuesday, July 14 – 1:30 pm
Join Designer and Speaker, Robbie Amodeo, for a guided tour of the life, legacy and cultural contributions of our 35th First Lady. But please don’t call her First Lady, she prefers Mrs. Kennedy! The Life of Jacqueline Kennedy is a canopy of America from her impeccable style to her grace and intelligence. We will travel back in time to Camelot, learn some facts you may not know, and even see vintage and replica pieces in the style of Mrs. Kennedy.
