KELSEYVILLE, Calif. – The California Old Time Fiddlers Association is continuing its monthly First Sunday Fiddlers’ Jam sessions in the Ely barn.

On Sunday, Aug. 6, the fiddlers will be performing beautiful Americana music and continue the tradition of Fiddler’s Jams at Ely.

Come ready to clap your hands and tap your toes. They’ll even make room for those who want to get up and dance.

This is a free, family friendly event for all to enjoy, young and old alike.

The fun begins at the museum at 11 a.m. with the fiddlers playing in the barn from noon through 2 p.m. Come early to enjoy all of the newest museum acquisitions and displays.

Take a hayride or stroll the barn trail. Enjoy the music with beverages and tasty treats provided by the docents. Bring your own wine and sip it in Ely Stage Stop wine glasses that are available for purchase.

This event will help promote the growth of the Ely Stage Stop Blacksmith shop and further the interaction of the local community with the history of Lake County and the Ely Stage Stop.
