Kelseyville >> Start the holidays with sounds of joy. The Old Time Fiddlers Association continues their monthly First Sunday Fiddlers’ Jam sessions at the Ely Stage Stop & Country Museum. On Sunday, Dec. 6, they will perform Americana music with a possible sprinkling of holiday cheer to get you in the spirit. They will even make room for those who want to get up and dance.
This is a free, family friendly event for all to enjoy, young and old alike.
The fun begins at the museum at 11 a.m., with the Fiddlers playing in the barn from noon through 2 p.m. Enjoy the music with beverages and treats provided by the docents. Bring your own wine and sip it in Ely Stage Stop wine glasses that are available for purchase. Learn more about the Christmas Marketplace that will take place in the barn on Saturday, Dec. 19.
Attendees frequently make donations and the money collected is split between Ely, to help fund the current all-volunteer blacksmith shop project, and the Fiddlers Association, who uses it to partially fund their scholarship programs.
The Lake County Historical Society’s Ely Stage Stop & Country Museum is located at 9921 Hwy 281 (Soda Bay Road) in Kelseyville. Current hours of operation are 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. each Saturday and Sunday. Fiddlers’ Jams occur the first Sunday of every month.
