Jazz Singer, Christi Bye performs “America the Beautiful” — Cabaret Benefit

Join us as we kick off the celebration of America’s 250th anniversary with an intimate evening cabaret blending jazz, storytelling, and patriotic reflection enriched by a display of historic flags from the museum’s collection.

Light bites and drinks will be served in our Kenneth M. Reiss Library followed by a spectacular cabaret concert featuring jazz vocalist Christi Bye. The evening concludes with desserts and guided tours of the homestead. Do not miss this special event which is sure to sell out.
