The historical narrative illustrated with furnishings and photographs will be presented by Joe Landsberger, past president and current archivist. This summer Sokol Minnesota is continuing a restoration/renovation phase with major projects, and its Project Planning Committee is meeting with stakeholders of the building. Our neighbors/neighborhoods are critical as past partners in saving the hall in the 1970's. All are welcome! 383 Michigan www.sokolmn.org

 Dvořák Project Workshop at CSPS Hall July 27th & 28th 
7-10 p.m. Neighbors of the West End are welcome to attend two open rehearsals of a new work in progress inspired by Antonin Dvořák’s historic visit to the CSPS Sokol Hall, the West End, and the Midwest in 1893. In April playwright and director Rachel Perlmeter and composer J. Anthony Allen would love to find some musicians in the community who might like to take part in the concert performance which will be held at the Hall on October 15th at 8:00 pm- amateurs as well as experienced players are encouraged to come learn more about the project and should bring their instruments if they would like. The creative team will be pleased to share what they’re doing with anyone interested in the great maestro’s story or in glimpsing a sneak peak at how a staged radio play gets put together.
