Jeffs Bio
Jeff Lawson is an award winning artist, and entertainer. Despite what Jeff may tell you, he has yet to perform at Madison Square Garden, Red Rocks Amphitheater, or the Spectrum. That’s because his day job is a mason, and he is new on the comedy scene.
You will find Jeff Thursday nights hosting trivia night at Roberts Block Restaurant. You can catch up about his events, art shows and comedy
Break up the week with trivia night at Roberts Block! Good times are bound to happen, great questions, great people. Your knowledge and sense of humor is being tested.
Roberts Block Restaurant's seasonally changing menu offers updated American fare prepared with pride and care and a concentration on fresh ingredients & bold flavors. Our Executive Chef Sean Reynolds creates interesting and bold flavored specials for you to enjoy.
Join Witchwookie for 2 full days and nights of music and healing as we gather in a safe, beautiful setting to sing, dance, laugh, and play.
Phases of the Moon is an intimate, family friendly, sober gathering that is capped at 125 persons. You'll have the opportunity to truly connect with friends old and new and get to know the musicians and teachers while you experience healing in the truest sense of the word.
Full festival tickets include camping, live music on the main stage (PURE JERRY!), hot tub, hot showers, cold plunge, walking trails, hooping, fire spinning, ceremonies, and workshops including edible walks, soul movement, breathwork, sound healing, yoga, qigong, human design, emotional healing, cuddling and more all on a wooded private property in the pines.

Nature's beauty has been depicted in various art forms throughout all of history. Over time the elements combined to form this ever changing world as you know it. Let us be inspired from the environment during this elemental creative journey expressed through drawing, painting, and mixed media. Our set up along the beautiful river will include music, the sounds of nature, and an altar. Transfer all of this energy through your own unique creative voyage. Please bring what inspires you to create such as: elements from nature, special objects, and art supplies. All art levels are encouraged to join. There will be a community table set up with some supplies that we can all create with. If you have something to share please bring that too.
We'll have a collaborative canvas which all are encouraged to contribute some style! This will be auctioned off at some point and the proceeds will be donated.

Anahata’s Purpose is a Four Day Wellness Retreat, with some festival vibes.... but not too many. We still indulge in some dancing and live music... but not to late into the night because the real work is taking place during the day. We are lucky enough to feature great facilitators from all over the Tri State Area and beyond. They each come to share their expertise in a fun, supportive and loving way. We also are big on community. Not toxic, spiritual bypassing community, but actual supportive community that thrives to learn, do better and be better always. We all can make safer spaces together.
"Something to Talk About" is a multimedia Art Exhibit featuring three local artists Jerry Schurr, Evvy Edinburg, and Jeff Lawson coming together with a mission to create conversation over Art.
