Kick off weekend in style at Lightner

The Lightner Museum monthly evening of lively conversation and harmonious music continues from 5:30 to 7:30 p.m.  Jan. 26 in the Grand Ballroom Gallery.

(Please note the time change from previous “Lightner After Hours” events).

January’s cocktail hour will feature local guitarist Sam Pacetti who has previously performed at the Lightner as a part of St. Augustine’s “Sing Out Loud” concert series and specializes in finger-style guitar-playing. Locals and tourists alike are welcome to enjoy the atmosphere of the Lightner Museum after hours while relaxing with refreshments before visiting some of the many wonderful local restaurants.

A special check presentation and exciting announcement will be given by Linda Bartimus, vacation specialist for Cruise One.  Bartimus spearheaded a unique fundraiser for the Lightner Museum in 2016 in the form of a maiden voyage to the Southern Caribbean on Holland America’s MS Koningsdam.

 Café Alcazar, located in the Historic Pool area of the museum will be open with a specialty dinner menu from 6 to 8 p.m.  Free parking is available after 5 p.m.  Please enter through Café Alcazar entrances on Granada St. or Cordova St.  Professional attire is suggested.

Sam Pacetti is a “finger-style guitar wizard” based in St. Augustine.  For more information about Sam Pacetti visit sampacetti.com.
