A famous painter married to an in-demand fashion photographer, she lives in a grand house with big windows overlooking a park in one of London’s most desirable areas. One evening her husband Gabriel returns home late from a fashion shoot, and Alicia shoots him five times in the face, and then never speaks another word.

The Book Sisters Book Club 5:30 pm - 6:30 pm - October 21, 2019

An evening for women to let their hair down, make new friends and enjoy discovering a new book. This months featured book is First Frost written by Sarah Ellen Addison. Dinner will be provided!

It's October in Bascom, North Carolina, and autumn will not go quietly. As temperatures drop and leaves begin to turn, the Waverley women are made restless by the whims of their mischievous apple tree... and all the magic that swirls around it. But this year, first frost has much more in store.

When a mysterious stranger shows up and challenges the very heart of their family, each of them must make choices they have never confronted before. And through it all, the Waverley sisters must search for a way to hold their family together through their troublesome season of change, waiting for that extraordinary event that is First Frost.

Murder Mystery Dinner 2:00 pm - 4:00 pm - October 27, 2019

Join us for our 4th annual Murder Mystery Dinner "Murder in the Keys."

The game is designed for adults (18 and up), as it features some adult themes. It is also quite tongue-in-cheek, with humorous character names and some goofy story elements. But the mystery is solvable…if the audience members pay close attention, ask intelligent questions, and use the process of elimination to find out whodunit. Guests will be on teams working together to solve the crime. Get you team together and join in on the fun. This is a free program and no sign up necessary.

Light meal will be provided. This event will last 2-3 hours.
