2024 City Lights & Stars: Gwen & The Retro Cats
2024-08-09 19:30 | The Gazebo & Grounds, 3101 Burritt Drive, Huntsville, AL, 35801, United States
2024 marks the 31st Season of the City Lights & Stars Concert Series at Burritt on the Mountain, and we have 8 concerts to celebrate!
This is the rare band that brings together the deep-pocket swing of the 1930s and 1940s and contemporary beats like Bruno Mars “Uptown Funk” and Lizzo’s “Juice!” A veteran on the Southeast music scene, Gwen is one of the busiest bandleaders in Atlanta, along the way being named “Favorite Jazz Artist” by the readers of Creative Loafing magazine and taking her act overseas to France, Eastern Europe and Turkey. The rest of the “Kats” are equally impressive: Jez Graham on keyboards; LA Tuten on bass; Michael Hoskin on saxophone; Marty Martin on trumpet; Wes Funderburk on trombone; and Mike Hinton is the faithful backbeat on the drums. Collectively, these players (and Gwen) have about a century of experience between them, playing all over the world, for the last (4) Olympic Games, movie stars with Turner Classic Movies, and professional clients in such diverse locales as the Cayman Islands to New York City.
Bring your chair, blanket and picnic to enjoy the evening. Food trucks will be onsite with food & dessert available for purchase. Beer and Wine available for purchase. Absolutely no outside alcohol please.

Deadline to Register: June 16th at 5:00pm
Title: Textile Arts: “Folded Bark Baskets”
Description: In this class, each student will begin with a four foot section of poplar log. They will be instructed in how to remove, fold and begin to dry a piece of bark. They will take this unfinished basket and other supplies home to complete on their own later after drying. Next, students will be provided a preform basket and construct a basket (attach handle, rim supports, etc.), and have the opportunity to add various embellishments. Each student will take home both their completed basket and the folded/drying bark to complete at home.
Instructor: Andrew Lee is a professional educator with over two decades of teaching experience. His fascination with history began by finding Native American artifacts in Northwest Georgia as a young boy. He credits this time in his life as crucial in developing a deep interest in understanding past cultures. While at the University of Georgia, Andrew met master primitive skills instructor Scott Jones. After taking Jones’ flintknapping class, the fuse was officially lit. More than twenty years later, through teaching in elementary and middle schools as well as in the correctional setting, the constant passion in Andrew’s educational life has been pursuing history, including learning more about primitive skills. His hands-on workshops and the bark baskets & stone-bladed knives that he creates are ways that he expresses this love of history and nature. He teaches workshops at various locations around the southeast including John C. Campbell Folk School in western North Carolina and Foxfire in Northeast Georgia.
