What
…is so bad about having the blues? Absolutely nothing, especially if it has to do with PocoNotes LLC’s “Faces and Voices of the Blues…Too.”
On June 22 and 23, photography and music will be paired at Scranton’s historic Tripp House (1011 N. Main Ave., Scranton). Local Jim Gavenus’s photos will be shown and blues legend Roy Book Binder will show off his guitar skills.
The photo exhibit will be open June 22 from noon-6 p.m. and June 23 noon-4 p.m. Gavenus will hold a photography workshop June 22 from 1-2 p.m.
Binder will play June 22 and hold a guitar workshop June 23 from 2-4 p.m. Tickets for the concert are $25 in advance and $30 at the door.
All workshops are free.
Where
…can you work on that bikini body, and at no cost?
All are welcome to one free week of yoga at Mission Yoga Studio (542 and 544 Spruce St., Scranton). The opening celebration begins June 7 from 6-9 p.m. Free yoga will be offered through the end of the day on June 13.
When
…is having some cold brews coupled up with helping out area organizations?
Pretty much all the time at Damenti’s Patio Bar (870 N. Hunter Highway, Mountain Top).
The patio bar and sculpture garden will open for the summer on June 7, with music by Fortunate Son. Half of the proceeds gathered at the bar will go to a specific local non-profit, which rotates every week.
Damenti’s is open Tuesday through Saturday from 5-10 p.m. and Sunday from 4-9 p.m. For more information, visit damentis.com.
Why
…should you come to Mohegan Sun at Pocono Downs on June 18? Because, if you’re in the market for a job, that is the place to be. The business is seeking to fill over 250 new positions as a result of the job fair that day.
