Museum hosting rug demonstration
The Aiken County Historical Museum will host a woven rag rug demonstration and tatter party on Saturday from 10 a.m. to noon. Participants will learn how to turn old clothing into beautiful woven rag rugs and placemats using the Museum’s vintage loom.
Refreshments will be served. This event is free to the public, but space is limited. Call the museum at 642-2015 for more information and to make a reservation.
The Aiken High FFA Plant Sale will be held at the Aiken High School Greenhouse from 8 a.m. to noon on Saturday. For more information, call Meghan Wood at 641-2500.
The Masterworks Chorale of Aiken will present its spring concert at USC Aiken’s Etherredge Center Saturday at 8 p.m.
Joining the Chorale for the performance will be South Boundary, a 16-voice male ensemble from Aiken and Augusta.
The concert features the contrasting works of Randall Thompson’s “Frostiana,” (from the writings of the American poet Robert Frost), Johannes Brahms’ “Liebeslieder Waltzes,” and song settings of poems by the Scottish bard, Robert Burns.
Masterworks Chorale will perform the Brahms, and South Boundary will present the Burns selections. In addition to several mixed-voice pieces and some women-only pieces, “Frostiana” features a number of “men only” pieces that will combine the forces of the two local ensembles. Elana Pagal and Larry Miller will serve as the evening’s accompanists.
Tickets are available by phone or in person at the USCA box office.
For more information, call 641-3305.
